Caroline Sithole wrote, “I think beating its not the answer just ask her nicely where she was how do you know whether she was kidnapped and abused l wouldn’t beat my child like that before I even know where she was and confront the people who kept her for 2 weeks in custody, and it depends how old she is.”
