The girl is "left over" from previous relationship. He hates her.... Mother should have picked up on this.

Now Ex boyfriend?

The 'mother' should be arrested too for her poor choices in men and leaving the girl with that animal.

Yet another victim of the circus of nonsense.

She wet herself'? At 8 years old? Not without a reason. Being alone a home with a violent creep would be one.

Why is it always unemployed men living with a single mom who supports them that do this kind of child abuse? I’ve been unemployed in the past. It can happen. But I never shacked up with a vulnerable single mom for financial support. I mean how low do you have to get? The woman gave this guy a roof over his head and probably paid for his livelihood and he assaults her daughter? That’s just despicable.

“man”

people do like to throw that term around loosely. Jackass definitely isn’t one of those.

Throw the gutter trash into jail, throw away the key.

idk if the mother needs to be investigated as well or not, but make sure she never lets the girl near the scum again.

Agreed, Gaijinland. Also, to the people pointing blame at the mother...SERIOUSLY? Sometimes the biggest monsters can seem like the sweetest angels, especially at first. Narcissists in particular are fantastic at hiding their true colors at the start of relationships. Regardless of whether this man is a narcissist or not, however, I don't see how anyone can blame the mother here. There is clearly only one person to blame - and that is the fully adult male (nearly in his 30s) who chose of his own accord to take out his aggression on an 8-year-old child. Despicable.

Clearly, this PoS is not fit to be a father. Children wet themselves; it happens. And children are far more perceptive than we give them credit for. She probably was extremely uncomfortable and possibly anxious being left alone with this garbage excuse for a human being leading to her losing control of her bowels. Also, he was unemployed? Yeah, toss this waste of space into a hole and throw away the key.

@Gaijinjland The woman gave this guy a roof over his head and probably paid for his livelihood and he assaults her daughter? Lets hope that the police will give this POS a roof over his head and he gets assaulted by the guards!

I kind of assumed that many times when they write "unemployed" it was code for yakuza, or chimpira. Or some other ne'er-do-well. And the reason for kicking her, she wet herself, it is only what he told police. It could be a lie and the only thing this idiot could think of to say!

That's not what it means.

Japanese people have grown up learning history by learning all the circumstances surrounding an event, and the context around it. As such, their media evolved to present information in much the same way, and therefore report the employment status of the individual, as Japanese readers expect that information, and would feel that the article would be incomplete without it.

This guy is definitely a loser. 8-year old girl wet herself. Yes, and....? As a teacher, I've seen students older than this girl wet themselves. That's part of life. Nothing to be ashamed of. However, this loser couldn't handle it. I'm glad his name was mentioned so other could know of him.

This violent guy should definitively sent to jail for a while, how can you mistreat the small child of your partner like that.

'Poor choices in men' is not a crime, therefore there is no reason to arrest this woman. However unfortunately she is not a single case, many women accept bad boys as their male partner, despite there is no shortage of lonely men who have a regular job, would like to be with a female partner and would never harm a mother or her child.

...to the people pointing blame at the mother...SERIOUSLY?

...however, I don't see how anyone can blame the mother here.

I do not agree with your opinion. I blame this woman too for her poor choices in men. Who is the father of this girl? Good question, and the next man showing up living with her is even worse?

I really think, this woman should change her criteria how to choose her man.

There are so many honest men around looking for a female partner. Women have a choice. No excuse for any female to socialize with a violent thug.

For everyone throwing blame at the mother, she went to the police. She took action to protect her daughter. She didn't try to protect the POS who did this.

It's like some people always feel the need to blame victims, especially when they're women. (Yes. She is a victim here, as well.)
