Hennepin County filed a court petition Friday seeking protection for Adrian Peterson’s 4-year-old son after he was allegedly abused by the Vikings running back in May.

The petition asked a judge to approve a safety plan for the child, including that Peterson have no unsupervised or unauthorized contact with the child, and that he refrain from any “corporal punishment and/or physical discipline.”

Counties file child protection petitions when they need a juvenile court judge’s authority to protect a child. Judges can order children to be removed from a parent’s custody, but that has not happened in this case.

Hennepin County requested and received an order postponing the child protection proceedings until Peterson’s criminal charges are resolved.

1. This second-to-last part of this article really got me...

“Adrian is very willing to continue cooperating with authorities in every way in order for them to conclude he is a good parent,” Rusty Hardin, Peterson’s lawyer, said in a statement.

He is trying to convince them he is a good parent, when in fact he should be DEMONSTRATING by his ACTIONS that he is willing to BECOME a good parent. That he would be wanting prove that he IS a good parent demonstrates that he DOES NOT GET IT.

I'm becoming more and more convinced that parents who beat their children in this way do so because it turns them on. This kind of abuse is of a very sexual nature for the parent. And they so often pass that fetish on to the next generation.
