Yomiuri Giants baseball manager Abe resigns after arrest over allegedly assaulting his daughter
TOKYO (AP) Shinnosuke Abe has resigned as manager of Japans storied baseball team Yomiuri Giants after being arrested for the alleged assault of his teenage daughter.
The Yomiuri newspaper, which owns the team, said Abe allegedly grabbed his 18-year-old daughter by the collar and threw her down to the floor as he tried to stop her fighting with her younger sister at home in Tokyo on Monday.
The daughter, whose name has not been released, then contacted a child guidance center after asking artificial intelligence app ChatGPT what to do, she said in a statement released Tuesday. To her surprise, she said, the child center reported the alleged incident to police and police showed up at their house hours later.
I broke down in tears seeing my father apprehended, she said.

(5,085 posts)People depending on this bullshit to make all their decisions is ridiculous. Having it call the cops automatically is also a very dangerous thing. Its auto fascism.
Sadly, were going to be seeing a lot of nonsense like this as we go along.

(2,723 posts)The daughter has forgiven the father, and ChatGPT isn't to blame here.
Hardly seems to have "destroyed" the family.

The child will probably get massive pressure and condemnation from her friends and neighbors because she didn't handle it in a more discrete manner. In retrospect, it looks like she would have chosen another way because she didn't realize the full extent of the blowback her father would get.

(52,747 posts)As a group, they can be very swift at condemning members of their own culture for social indiscretions. It's a crap shoot if they blame the older sister for getting in a fight with the younger sister or vice versa since they expect younger people to respect and obey those who are older, with the ultimate progression being, filial piety.

Again, the family hardly seems to have been "destroyed."

(2,116 posts)If his daughters thought fighting was a good way to resolve their problems, doesn't suggest his parenting prior to throwing his kid to the ground was that great either.
Actions have consequences. I wasn't a perfect kid, the only parent who ever committed violence against me got cut out of my life for that. No regrets from me on that 20+ years later.
