Default One Thing that should have never been in the script

Raj getting beat by his mother with a BELT-wasn't he a little too old for that?

They took that from the movie Cooley High, although he didn't actually get beat. The mother was too tired from work and fell asleep before she could spank him. But yeah, if I remember correctly, the character in the movie might have mentioned that he was too old to be getting beatings.

You brought this up 3 months ago

And yes, it was ridiculous.

Not only was he too old, he was too big in size for it even to be realistic.

I think someone once mentioned here that to a black parent if you still living under their roof and their still taking care of you...they feel you never to big for a spanking!

Wink What truth! LOL

Yeah, what MsLadySoul just said right below makes a lot of sense...
No matter how old you might get, if you're living under a parent's roof, you're never too old or mature for a spanking/punishment.
That's what making personal choices to move OUT of the parent's house, are for!

I'm just giving an opinion which isn't trolling.
