Does anyone know if Adrian Peterson, after vowing to never "eliminate whooping his kids,"

has lost custody of them? And how many of them are there?

His 4 year old also said he's been beaten with a belt, punched in the face, and that his father has lots of belts and a "whooping room."

Peterson went on to reiterate again how much he loves all his kids, and only “whoops” them because he wants them to do right. Toward the end of the interview, Peterson said he would reconsider using switches in the future, but said he would never “eliminate whooping my kids . . . because I know how being spanked has helped me in my life.”
