Good points. I find it highly suspicious that Jakob only fired his father after winning Olympic gold. Jakob waited until he didn’t need Gjert anymore and then coldly kicked him to the curb. Ungrateful son.
Not excusing Gjert - I don't know. However, we can't have a society where people can just claim a thing and therefore it is true. Do you disagree?
The truth in this case is that his family have spoken out about what they consider is abusive conduct. None of us is in a position to say they are wrong. We aren't members of his family.
None of us are in a position to say whether the allegations have merit. Thank you Captain Obvious. So why are you bullying people here?
You equate online behaviour on a site like this with the violent experiences some have within their family. You are a clod. By all means allow yourself to feel aggrieved by that comment.
So you deflect and prove my case with more verbal abuse. If you were only smarter you could see what a hypocrite you are.
Whereas you aren't smart enough to realise you have just engaged in what you have criticised me for. Calling out stupidity - like yours - is actually a requirement here.

True, but we are also not in a position to say they are right.
This is where the three most important words in the English language come in - "I don't know."
We do know what they say. None of us is in a position to say they are wrong.

You cannot help yourself. You judge others but your behavior is abusive. You are an abuser. So check yourself.

So discussion is now bullying? Quite the snowflake. We are in a position to say their allegations have merit, because they have made them. We have no reason to doubt either the sincerity or accuracy of what they have said. Whether their allegations are true is for them to know.

Maybe Gjert engaged in “discussion.” I would bet big money that Gjert is a better person than you.
No offense but you sound extremely sheltered. Or have a very narrow and naive scope of how the world works. Not sure where you’re from but getting spanked or hit for misbehaving when you’re a kid is extremely common where I’m from. Beating a child to the point where they have to get treated at a hospital crosses the line though. Not everyone was privileged or lucky enough to grow up in a perfect and loving family like you, with parents who gave you kisses and hugs every day.
And again:
The differences between hitting your kid and hitting your spouse are: Kids are unable to hit back Kids have no access to legal remedies Kids are far more emotionally vulnerable Kids are incapable of understanding that it is the hitter that is the problem, not the hittee
So you’re implying it’s OK to beat your spouse? Classy.
