Doug Punches an Abusive Father | ER 

Yep. Never piss off Batman.

That was no kick at the depth of that imprint he stomped into that child's back literally the only way to get that type of imprint it's either stomp on something or stand on it and put your weight on it

@@dizzywun1950 he likely stomped on her back and then tossed her over the balcony so her fall and injuries could mask the abuse.

Well let’s NOT GO THERE..... as far as Batman’s go.. Let’s just not talk about it. He wasn’t good or the best.

@@chrisdelagarza8048 doesn't matter punching child abusers is a batman thing to do

I want to buy that receptionist a beer🍺

@Teresa Downes it was a guy and I can't tell you how many people shakes his hand after that

Class.

Give the guy my admiration.

Mad respect to the receptionist

Fatherly instinct. It's the most loveable thing about a man.

God damn it, I wanted to punch the guy too!!

Agreed. He meant well and was protective of kids, mess with them and he'll be your enemy for life.

I knew Doug had a good heart in S1E2 when he called out the abusive mom

Dr. Doug Ross definitely as a good heart ♥️

When I became an adult, I confronted my family member about all the physical abuse she put me through when I was a child. She said she didn't remember any of it. I hear that's common among abusers. There's a quote: "For me it was abuse that haunted me for a lifetime ~ for you it was a Tuesday."

Ive had that happen with adult abusers and bullies i went to school with...they totally block it out

Iv met a few punkass kids 12-17 year olds at stores before just harrassing people acting tough cause they know people will use restraint.

Don't forget child molesters, they are just as much as a monster.

I do think some abusers do remember it they just won’t admit that what they did was wrong. I heard that recently a girl I knew who bullied me for my autism, son might be on the spectrum. I do wonder if that is gods way of forcing her to see the error of her ways.

I'm getting the idea the abusive dad beat the guy to death

@@X3H3X same

Texas is almost Florida level

@@X3H3X ik the story and yes a friend of the family that was working on their property abused and tried to molest the little girl when her father came upon the scene and proceeded to beat him to death

@@seajay6903 nah not really Louisiana is more related to Florida than Texas

Agreed. He wasn’t afraid she would die; he was afraid he’d get caught

it was all the hallmarks of an abusive parent who keeps regreting what they do AFTERWARDS but keeps doing it anyway again and again, slowly escalating.

Oh there was a look of fear on his face all right, but it wasn’t out of concern for his daughters life, it was out of guilt.

I sadly didn't even see any guilt in his eyes, smh.

@@starsintherain2000 then what did you see?

I agree

Absolutely.

mmmm, no, go to jail and lose my career over a man who is about to have a judge throw a book at him? nope... not worth it.

Damn straight!

You would love Dr. Ross’s therapy session afterwards

The writing and the directing of this show was non stop excitement.

Dawson’s Creek is pretty good too

@General Pershing I'm not. Just realize it now.

@She-Wolf Say that again.

@She-Wolf couldn't agree with you more.

I was going to tell a story about my best friend who’s a fire fighter/paramedic. Then I remembered my sign-in is my real name. BAD IDEA. Let’s just say when somebody says “The Policeman beat me up.” The media gets called and charges get filled. When some violent meth-head says “The ambulance guy beat the living snot outta me.” nobody believes him.

Good for you. Hopefully he got a concussion

Fatman in the Forest I might have heard about incidental contacts with family. Personally, I made a point of separating parent and child under some urgent guise. Making sure everyone involved was clear, I am filing a report with child services. I have also been willing to defend a child to the death. And claim In Loco Parenti. I was defending my child.

Lol "oopsies"

Good for you! 🙏🏼

But unfortunately who are u going to help from a prision cell

@@matthewjones2095 thats why i like having loyal friends, ive got several who are prepared to swear that i was in bed with their mothers and sisters if i ever get my hands on the mongrel who hurt my little girl.

Social workers used verbal threats against me they threatened to have my elderly mother locked up if she asked about me I was 13 at the time

I would react like that

Alfred: master Bruce that serves him right for abusing his kid

I know right? I swear people are getting stupider by the year!

How about DONT HIT YOUR KIDS

If the kid dies without care that's guaranteed life sentence

There's many who blame it on their older kids, who some do end up believing they are. Or don't bring them in knowing they'll get in trouble and the kid has a injury for life or dies. This mother and her gf abused her kids so badly and one toddler died with multiple broken bones and other stuff. They had the older kids think it was their fault. Police knew such lil kids couldn't and separated and questioned stories sketchy until after couple days kids less scared of them and being in good hands told the horrible abuse they all got. They found on their computer they had been searching on google if lesbian couples can go to the same prison together... And stuff like can a kid survive broken ribs and other stuff. So all was before the kid died so always thought of themselves even when they knew he could die and where i imagine days before they knew he was. What's worse is daycares reported the kid couple times for bruises and stuff worried he might be but some technology plus human error he was never looked into. Where they would've made a house visit and see how the meek kids were, their bare rooms were and their relationships and interactions with the mom and gf was off. There was just a case solved of a lil kid. Older siblings said parents were abusive, a bad night and never saw him again. Was told he went to live with another family member. Growing up they couldn't see or get a clear story, as adults and suspicious of their parents finally went to cops. Investigation and questioned, I assume being on edge, jumpy and shit they give a story of X having them for a lil, well X is contacted and says they never did. Yeah they got them talking after caught in a lie, the parents i think dad killed the kid and mom helped him hide their body and cover up story. Was like over 20 or so years ago. I think there's many more stories like this especially in the past with the laws and rights

Either enough decency left where they want to save their kid or enough self-preservation to recognize that child murder is far worse.

His ironic fear made me sick.

Abusers tend to be cowards that bully those weaker than themselves.

@@zacharyriley4561 True. They can't pick on someone their own size

Unfortunately, we have psychopathic fathers IRL that legit won't show fear like this.

He knows exactly what it's like; he was probably taught to abuse by his own father when he was a child. Most abusers learned early on that it's "acceptable" to take out your frustrations on the helpless and defenseless. That's how they were raised and it's all they know.

How heartbreaking for the child and healthcare workers who see the evidence.

As a kid, I had a lot of trips to the hospital with staff asking questions about my injuries. I constantly had injuries. As a kid, these questions were a pain in my arse. I wasn't much of a talker and answering all of these questions frustrated me. As an adult, I'm very reassured there were people asking questions when they saw a frequent flier kid in the A&E. For the record, my parents weren't hurting me. As a little girl, I loved to go fast. I REALLY loved to go fast. And I was short on having some sort of sense of self-preservation. I disconnected my brakes on my bike, put on roller skates and went to the steepest road and went down to see how much speed I could pick up without stopping. In my teens, I took up rally racing. My parents honestly tried but if you turned your back to go to the toilet, there was a good chance I could get into serious trouble. For every crazy kid like me, there's probably a lot more kids who are being abused. Be aware that the crazy kid like me does exist. The best way to spot me would have been asking if I like to make things go faster. My poor parents were innocent. 😆

​@@runningfromabear8354 Your parents may be innocent, but letting your child be exposed to certain dangers can indicate neglect. Some parents even used to make their kids DO dangerous stunts to get into the Guinness Book of World Records. It is why a minimum age to be entered into it was set.

@@sexyhomeowner9345 True. But to be fair, some kids are a little crazy. For every accident I had, there were four more my parents stopped. 'Emily get down from the banister.' 'Emily wait.' 'Emily would you like to do this instead?' I snapped child safety locks. I climbed out of bed after they had gone to bed. I got into everything. Some of us just don't let up.

@@runningfromabear8354 Yeah, I was like you, always having accidents and injuring myself. And I would never accuse my parents of neglecting me, they can't be there 24/7. What's more, most of my injuries were when I wasn't with them, wich, if anything, prove they are super parents jajajaja No, but really, if the kid is a crazy one with little to none sense of self preservation, they are bound to have injuries, it's not the parents fault

And he got fired for beating up that abusive Dad

Holy...I...No More Comments...

@@TinyRoseTamer cops didnt even arrest us for breaking and entering, second they found out the guy was a nonce they even left the room for a minute so we could "let him have a bit more of a beating"

Well now, a man after my own heart!! Congratulations and thank you, God bless you and your family for all you have done.

@@vaar2742 sometimes doing the right thing is messy, but there will always be guys like me out there who arnt afraid of getting there hands dirty to do it

You did good my man

So sorry you went through such misery as a child. God bless you and may you find peace and true happiness, in Jesus Christ’s name. Amen

I hope that you’ve found peace. I’m sorry about what you went through.

Thing is those who stand up radiate the vibe and no one dares do it around them. So we never encounter it.

My own father was like that man. Picks on women and kids but would be shit scared if a real man went after them typical coward and bully

Wishing you the best :)

No kid should be treated like this by ANYONE.

@@TheFlyingmartini I agree with you

@@TheFlyingmartini ramen to that

Nicely said

And a few of my friends from Bosnia who are expert at long range artillery

My boy Remington would be happy to get in on some of that

Thing is that many child abusers end up the way they are because they were abused as children too. What you said about victims of abuse growing up to not be right in the head is no joke. According to studies, a third or more of people who were abused as children grow up to become abusers themselves. It's fucked up. Many of them are victims who never got any help, and as a result they turned into the things that they hated. Fucking tragic.

Hornady?

This clip should be called Batman and Goose.

@@TruckerPhilosophy LOL

@@TruckerPhilosophy lol

We did

@@corduerorose9747 ...You know what? You right. I think should've typed "the Batman we should've gotten _more of_ in 'Batman & Robin'.

I hate people who abuse kids and animals. I believe we should, as human beings in our right minds, be allowed to beat the hell out of someone caught abusing a child or animal.

they were stopping him cause they didn't want him to ruin his career and face criminal charges, of course any of us would do the same, but we have too much to lose

Nope you don't.

Ross is a great doctor he'd do anything to protect them kids

You see nothing wrong? Was Doug judge, jury and executioner? How about EVIDENCE that proves the father is responsible? There are many people who wear that same boot. Totally wrong. This IS a made up TV show! Try living in the real world of law and order!

You said it wrong. It goes like this: "if you abuse a child, you don't deserve to live". At least.. Thats thw way it goes for me anyway..

I bet the sound were great.

Julie Enslow they’d probably convict, but he wouldn’t do time for it. Especially since it was only one punch. He’d definitely be fired though.

@@76JStucki In real life, probably. But he didn't get any of that on the show. And I swear once people knew why - even if he were fired - he would be a very popular guy. Which he generally was so that's nothing new! LoL

Sometimes medical people close ranks, which in a case like this would be a good thing.

He might get fired, but I imagine that story would go public. And the overwhelming majority of the general public would be on his side. He could probably set up a GoFundMe or something for legal expenses + lost wages and make tons of money from that alone. edit: although this episode aired in 1995. GoFundMe wasn't a thing back then, of course.

That's inaccurate. Feelings have no place in the legal system, and since it would be a fact that the person did not physically or otherwise attempt to harm the person who attacked them directly in any way, (whether you feel they deserved it or not), that by definition is assault. Since there would likely be cameras to prove that, there is no way they wouldn't be charged without the child abuser having a huge and valid lawsuit against the hospital, and a huge backlash on those working within the legal system for not upholding the laws as they are written. Ffs

Absolutely 💯

In Canada, the abuser would get no more than a suspended sentence....while the Covid compliance violator behind him would get hefty fine, jail time, public shaming... and a whipping once Dougie Ford legislated it that very moment

@@loujaffee9125 Fuck dude, fellow Canadian right here. The fuck happened to us? What happened to our laws?

Huge respect to you. Well done.

I hope those kids have a new family.

Yeah, he was like “GIMME YO FOOT-“

Even if the dad had been smart enough to change his shoes, doug waa going after him..

Now that's a great comment. Good job dude.

Verified Weaver moment.

Afterwards, Quincy's examining what's left of him.

He didn’t just stomp her on the back,he stomped her on the back and then kicked her off the balcony…I honestly thought if Greene had known why Doug attacked the guy he wouldn’t have blamed him,if not joined in

***Grabs crowbar...***

@@jmiller297 More like grab whatever isn't nailed down to the floor.

He knew what was happening. Just took his sweet old time catching him

Can’t say I really blame him lol.

Not just any man….batman

Hard to keep you temper despite he should

Hell, I want to punch that dad too. A flippin boot mark! You know how hard you have to kick to leave a perfect imprint...

@@shevahauser1780 He wasn't a doctor

@@marvinmoore2720 my bad. Meant father

RIH Malik( Deezer D) This is when ER was the best on NBC’s Thursday lineup 👏🏽👏🏽❤️❤️❤️

Um George Clooney was in three kings and that movie was better..

🖤

Carter (in the back of his head): Oh boy.

Personally, I'd say that it would be a decent mix between badass and cringey. It usually depends on timing and delivery.

Yes. You are absolutely correct by saying that the kid will remember the abuse for their whole life. I was abused by my father as an adolescent. Today I'm 65 years old. And yes it's very true. It has affected my whole life. I did take professional therapy sessions for two years. As per request of my new bride back forty years ago.

WOW... Any other back ground into on that????

amen

Stone Cold: Oh, I'll take it from here, nurse!!

...until Stone Cold Steve Austin finds out that said abusive father is actually Brock Lesnar.

Ouch

Oh dear. Guys Hitting women is wrong but I get why he did it. It's a good thing the ⛪ security came and broke it up cause it could've gotten more ugly

@@girlpower1360 Guys hitting women isn't wrong. Why would it be right if it was a guy but not a girl? What a hypocrite.

You won’t do it. Trust me. It’s hard to explain but you won’t.

You would not be convicted....

Typical of abusers. They like to pick on the small and weak-minded.

I bet the abusive father got off easy and not got the full proper ass beating he deserved.

Well done to the officer.

You were alive in the 90s and didn't watch ER? 😱
