I hate parents who post about abusing their children on here.

I saw two posts of parents hitting their kids, and one about someone's son hating them. I know this is supposed to be a supportive community, and parents make mistakes, but I see posts like this, and alarm bells go off in my head. I feel parents who do this are trying to gain sympathy, plus we don't know what's really going on. What the parent posts on here might be completely different in real life.
