A family feud in a Roseau North community has resulted in the hospitalization of an elderly woman and the arrest of her daughter.
According to information reaching Dominica News Online, a woman and her mother from Upper Fond Cole were arguing about domestic matters for hours on Tuesday.
It is alleged that the woman attacked her mother, hitting her with a stone.
“That woman and her mother always in a tie up. All yesterday they were arguing. I don’t know what her mother told her but she hit the lady with a stone and she fell,” one eyewitness told DNO.
The eyewitness added that “blood was coming from her head and the lady arm was swollen. They called the ambulance for her and she was taken to the hospital. Then we called the police and they came to pick up the daughter”.
The police confirmed when contacted, that the young woman was in custody but had not yet been charged.
u cant do that remember she is ur mom.where is the love
this young woman should never think of hurting her mother…that lady kept u inside for nine month gave u all what u need to make u are woman and u turn back and hit her with a stone..think before u act something P
…SMFH. This is why God is the only with the rights to pass judgement. You all only look at 2 angles and pass judgement, some of u only look at 1. Look at everything and nothing before you are sure. And don’t think just im saying this i am judging you. Everyone is essentially they’re own child and parent. Anyone can do just about anything. Your limitations are what u make it. Before spewing more crap from your wicked minds, remember everyone is different. If they weren’t we wouldn’t have crime, law or the gray areas.
wow! ive been beaten, verbally abused, mentally abused and even sold to men by my own mother from only seven years old. im grown now and somehow dont hate her. why? because i have life. ive been provoked to do worse things but wouldnt dare raise a hand to my own mother. THATS THE ULTIMATE SIN.(according to my grand mother) i say turn the other cheek, ignore her or walk away. her sins are bound to find her.
SO SAD !! Mr Skeritt, Do and your government have a program set up to handle anger management?????
WHAT DOES SKERITT HAVE TO DO WITH THIS!
WHY DOES EVERYTHING THAT GOES WRONG IN THIS COUNTRY HAVE TO DO WITH SKERITT!
JEEZ!!
100 percent agree with you, what does politics have to do with that. Everything for some Dominicans is politics, give the PM a break in his life! He’s human too.
who else?

WoW everything is really Red/Blue or Green with you peoples
Get a life
In what way does this concerns the prime minister
Why everything in this country has to be Red/Blue or green with you peoples
Get a life
TRY THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX FOR ONCE
Provocation is against the law. We do not know the whole story.
How many tongue do you have? Make up your mind man.
Man, I know everyone who desires can post comments here, but most of you should work on your grammar. LOL!! You don’t have to write the way you talk. Sheeeeesh!!
Just a corection. The way u speak
It should be: Just a CORRECTION.
Ok I can post now ….but like I said I will continue my preaching on a related article…….ok peeps and children don’t forget what I told you…you have rights too
Proverbs 6:20: My son, keep your father’s commands and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.
Proverbs 23:22: Listen to your father, who gave you life, and do not despise your mother when she is old.
Proverbs 23: 13-14.
“Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you beat him with a rod, he will not die. If you beat him with the rod you will save his soul from Sheol.”
“Sheol” is often translated as “hell,” but it has a more general meaning of death or the grave.
I’m using the New Oxford Annotated Bible.
no child should raise their hands on their mother. always remember because of ur mother and father that u have life on earth. some of us wish we still had our mothers here with us for u have a chance to have a mother around u and some others dont. cherish the moments with ur parents at all times
What do we call that? Parent abuse. Thank you
TINY DO YOU HAVE KIDS, I GUESS NOT, PUT IN YOUR THICK SKULL, A MOTHER KILL HER CHILD IT A SMALL CRIME, AND FORGOTTEN. YOU KILL YOUR MOTHER YOUR JAIL TERM IS HIGHER, AND YOUR ARE STAIN FOREVER, IF I BEAT MY CHILREN , THEY CALL THE POLICE FOR ME. THEY WILL HAVE TO MOVE IN BY THE POLICE STATION, NOT IN MY HOUSE I BUILT, I RUN THINGS, NOT THEY. I AM THE HEAD ALONG WITH THEIR FATHER, THANKS GOD MY THREE CHILDREN, ADULTS NOW NEVER GIVE US PROBLEM. I AM A DOMINICAN LEAVE HERE AT THE AGE OF 7 YRS. I NEVER EXPERIENCE CHILDREN ABUSING THEIR PARENTS. IT A NEW GENERATION. SO SAD.
NO CHILD AT NO TIME SHOULD NEVER NEVER HIT
THEIR PARENT
Adress to tiny, do your parents abuse you, go to the police and file a complain. She will charge for child abuse. don’t be upset not all mother are bad, I love my kids to death. that don’t give you right to beat on your mom. reading you comments, talk to a member of your church, tell them how you feel, your are a walking time boom. love your parents.
This woman on drugs, this woman mentally sick. girl friend, what you did to your mother. tear comes in my eye, oh my. you are curse for life only god can for give you, as parent we are not to lead our children to anger. but as children we love our parent we don’t wish to hurt them, nor put thier blood out side. girl go on your knee and ask god forgiveness, take the pastors go to the hospital with tears in your eye and beg your mother forgiveness, if she had aborted your ***, you wouldn’t have burst her head today.
Do you have kids of you own?Would you like them to do the same to you?That’s the lowest of low.I got so much blows when i was young but i always did something wrong to get that blows.Still, i love my mum to death.Her correction is the reason i am who i am today.Thanks mum, love you.
Its official, Tiny is the DNO lawtaw!
I look at my mother and the older she gets the more protective I become of her. I get mad at her when she wants to do things she does not have the strength to do . She is troublesome, yes…we would have little arguements here and there over what? her stubborness. I love her and the last thing I want to hear or see is something bad happening to her. Each day I ask the good Lord to give her health and strength because I want her here with me for a longer while. We have only one mother. No-one can replace her no matter what. That lady better find herself at the foot of her mother’s bed and plead for forgiveness
The news article says: “That woman and her mother always in a tie up”
So why is everyone talking as if this conflict was between a small child and her mother? That is completely different–the reason why I believe Tiny has crowded this blog with her comments.
Tiny you are sounding like someone who suffered abuse from your parents as a child. I need to let you know that forgiveness is letting go of the pain.
In other words the longer you continue with that unforgiving attitude the longer you are holding on to the wound–the reason for your pain.
Try forgiveness and you discover that mental healing–the wound and the pain you are now experiencing– is possible. You will never forget who inflicted your wound, but once the pain is gone, it just won’t matter anymore.
Now, I am not saying that we should use physical abuse against our own mother and father, but as an adult I need to respect my parents just as I need them to respect me.
Unfortunately, some parents never think of their children as people with their own minds and who have feelings like themselves–regardless of the age.
I am still shaking my head each time I remember that 3 years ago, when I was in Dominica, I was at my brother’s Domino shark and I ended up in a conversation with one of my school boyfriends–we are the same age and grown people.
My father was there too, and he decided that he did not approve of me talking with my friend and he called me to a side with his objection.
I had no desire to be rude to my father’s behaviour, because I knew that he was simply trying to protect me as his daughter–but there was no need for him to do that. I am a grown woman with a mind of my own!
But with a lot of parents and children their attitude and conducts demonstrates the lack of Love in them; and without Love our whole existence is full of chaos.
May we call for the Grace of God, His blessings of Love–especially for the abundance of patience and self-control, as often as we remember to do so.
Girl my advice to you is, ‘Go and beg your mother for forgiveness’. If you don’t, then you have brought a curse upon yourself. To all of us reading these comments, let us NEVER NEVER NEVER raise hands on our parents. No matter how difficult it may seem(even if we are provoked) let us ‘WALK AWAY’.
what is her name.cuz am from foncole but out of state
people i sense that TINY, needs conselling she must have been abused at an early age and needs HELP!!!
It seems like u don’t no wat is malaydision ebeh my girl u have eh. Ur moda? Shame On u
Some mothers deserve to get licks sometimes..they can be mean and ungrateful, no matter what you do, how hard you try, they never f@@@@ng satisfied. They drive you to hate them…doh tell me nothing about the Bible, they behave like they are the only one with feelings and because you are the child u should take their crap….
honor your mother and father does not mean make them take advantage of you, that is how the slave masters use the bible to keep their slaves submissive……
Ephesian 6;5
Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ
tiny get lost.
yes allu like to jump in bible eh But 6 Verse 4 >>>>> also say perents provoke not your children to wrath oh yes it does … the bible have for everybody not one set …some parent does think becuase they mad u they can walk on u how they want IT NOT SO ….YES RESPECT TO THE FULLEST BUT THEY HAVE TO REPECT ME TO ….
if u puzzled the book is ephesians
Tiny if this is the case then you need to walk away. you sound like you have been abused by your parents. that still doesn’t give you the right to raise your hands on your mother. revenge is no good. i am not saying its good to abuse your children. nobody would like that but it still doesnt make sense to raise your hands on your parents..
And when she dies, I sure you will be bawling down the church and cemetry with your crocodile tears. Girl think before you act. be careful!!!!!!
y are u all ANGRY at the MESSENGER! TINY is quoting the scriptures.she didnt write dese words. and yes GOD warns parents of not provoking there children to wrath. when HE said dat what u think HE meant.
THings like dat will happen.
so please people stop lashing out at this TINY person.
Sala finibat, weh weh weh. Maladisione is joke. When this person should be seeking blessings eh?
Signs of the times, the entire nation in decay from Top to Botton
@ Morehei
Please do not make me laugh. The entire nation is not yet in decay. Not as long as God is above and He always will be.
It may be signs of the times, children being disrespectful to parents and injuring them. Keep the faith and hope.
We reverse your curse on our nation in the Name of JESUS !!
To raise ur hand on ur parents is the lowest of the children them days hv no respect cant even control there anger towards their parents
parents need to control their anger towards their kids….the kids are the most vulnerable ones…where is the outcry for that….what is wrong with you people
Tiny..you again…You are scarred..GET HELP!
TINY i’m hearing u and whoever u are i will be praying for you OK!
my dear no parent have a right to ABUSE their child, and like wise no child have a right to raise hand on their parent.
chances are u might live with dese pains for the rest of ur life. in other to feel better you have to FORGIVE ur parents, i know its not easy. WHEN u FORGIVE dem u going to feel less angry.
Angel i agree with you to some point, but you and i don’t know what really takes place between the parent and child, don’t get me wrong am not making excuses at the same time the bible also say PARENTS don’t provoke your children to ANGER.
so why was my parents and many other parents in Dominica never arrested….. talking about swollen body parts….so because parents are careful not to cause bleeding or major bleeding rather… they don’t get arrested…so that’s it works
@ tiny
What you are insinuating is that you were an abused child, as it is called today.
Do you know what is contained in the Bible? “Spare the rod, spoil the child.” A little beating is good for them, not to injure them or they should be punished.
Some people cannot differentiate between parents disciplining their children, sometimes rude and wayward ones and child abuse.
Many of us children were beaten, be it for something minute, not that we were bad children but that the parents were strict and this was their manner of disciplining them. How many of them are today the worst for it? Many have forgotten those years since they were childhood years. Why don’t you? Be careful not to go around with a bitter feeling about your parents. It will do you no good. Be happy.
God’s blessing, love and peace.
I think you deserved everyone of those blows… if the ignorance u r spewing is any indidcation of your personality. A parent has a right to discipline their child… Simply hitting a child cannot be abuse..WE love quoting the bible to validate our ignorance but what about the verse that says “spare the rod and spoild the child” . Its because of people like you why our society is the way it has turned out today..I have learnt to appreciate every lick, box, tump and electric wire because it molded me into a strong, confident and succesful woman. We need to keep strong hands on our kids and guide them sternly in the right direction there are too many outside influences and once we allow them to go astray there is no way we can bring them back..BEAT THEM I SAY!! just done ABUSE them
I think Tiny needs a hug….. and some medication
thanks for the laugh….
a hug and from her/his comments, he/she is craving for attention and wants to be heard. so please let us not be harsh with tiny, we might jsut make the situation worst.
if TINY was not abused, base on her comments i have to go back to school.
ok dont be hatin tiny…show love and hope tiny have a change of mind and heart. ok ppl?
oh BOy! i knew this TINY person was abused. people if u have not walked in TINY shoes, he/she is not hearing anyting u all are posting.
TINY, u have to fine it in urself to forgive ur parent for abusing u. it is VERY difficult to do but u have to. I wish u could seek counselling.My dear no matter wat ur parent did to u.
God will give dem dere just recompence.
NO CHILD HAS NO RIGHT TO PUT THE HANDS ON
THEIR PARENT. MY MOM TO US THE WORST THING A
CHILD SHOULD DO IS HIT THEIR PARENT. NO
MATTER HOW BAD THE AGURMENT IT SHOULD NOT
COME TO THIS POINT. THIS WOMAN SHOULD ASK
HER MOM FOR FORGIVENESS AND TRY TO HAVE GOOD
RELATIONSHIP THE BEST WAY SHE CAN.
This is truly heartbreaking. I know some parents really push you over the edge but THAT’S UR MOTHER, THAT’S UR FATHER common, think twice.
Deuteronomy 5:6 clearly states that we should Honor our father and mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live long and that it may go well with you in the land the LORD your God is giving you.
PEOPLE MUMMY OR DADDY UPSET YOU, PLEASE WALK AWAY. HURTING THEM IS NOT THE ANSWER.
what about the ones who is unable to walk away the ones who are helpless and have no choice but to remain in the abusive situation
@ tiny
Today, children who can talk and walk should not have to stay in an abusive situation at home. If the authorities are aware of that, they could take them away from the home. DA has such a home for abused children.
An adult child could walk away from the situation. She was wrong to hit her mother and injure her. She could have killed her. Since the mother was injured on her head, she could get sick and who knows even die from the injury. I do think that both of them are in need of counselling.
my girl, let me tell u one thing. that was a deadly mistake you made trust me. your mother gave birth to you, she did not think of aborting you while in the womb. i am sure she tried her best in raising you into a young woman. she gave you a chance to experience life and you want to take from her what she gave to you man?????? come on wake up. you have yet to feel rage if you don’t ask for forgiveness in the appropriate manner.
all now i am away from my mother and i just wish i had the privilege to be with her every day of my life. girl no matter what you do for your mother in life it can never sum up to what she did for you and the love that she has for you regardless of your situation. NEVER
@laChica
You have spoken my exact sentiment here.
I have been living away from my mother and my whole family for more than thirty years now. And right now I just wish that I could be with her, my dad, and the others everyday. But I must wait for God’s plan to be fulfllled in my Life.
I don’t know what could cause mother or father and child to become so angry with each other–especially if they are both adults–even to the point of physical abuse that has even caused death in the past.
But it is obvious to us, when God is not present in the lives of others around us; for God does not conduct anger, quarrels, and fights that turns into physical abuse for example.
For that reason we should constantly be questioning our own state of mind and our way of existence, by which we can make certain that we are connected to God through conscience.
For without the guidance of God by our faith and the power of His Holy Spirit, nothing will work; and we are heading to damnation and the pit of eternal darkness. We don’t have to end up that way. It is our choice.
This is a prime example of non controllable anger. I as well as many may not know of the events that happened prior to the day of arguing and fight, but in no way should a child take it that far. I am not stating the mother is right in any way, because some parents do need to learn how to talk to their kids, how to trust them more and how to learn to let go sometimes. Some do need to understand that if one way isn’t’ working when talking to the child, then try another approach. Anything that would get that child to understand, but violence is not the answer. I do believe in parents using a belt but only to an extent. Not to abuse the child or create memories that leave emotional scars. With that said, I do believe that young lady should have walked away from her parent. It doesn’t matter how rude it is to walk away, it is better than ending this way. It’s also better to help both individuals calm the heck down. I cannot look at my mother and do such things, regardless of what she has done to me. At the end of the day, I still would have to answer to god. This is bad, and we need programs to provide help for such disrupted homes in Dominica. Some may not like the idea, but it just might help many others.
don’t hit,don’t talk back,just stay far far away from your mother like me.when your parents abuse you,they themselves will get it before they die..karma!!!!
Sad story!
This is so sad. Where is the respect? It doesn’t matter how provoked you are, count to a hundred, take a walk to calm down but never raise you hands on your parents.
good advise…but why are you only directing it towards the the parents also……
oops why are you only directing it toward the kids it should be directed towards the parents also
True say. Some of them are so wicked like mine. I stay far, far,away. some mothers are so deadly.
Parents, do not anger your children, but rear them in the discipline and in the teaching of Our Lord
Fathers, don’t make your children bitter about life. Instead, bring them up in Christian discipline and instruction
And you, fathers, do not irritate your children, but bring them up tenderly with true Christian training and advice
i posted it again cause they need to read this dno……this people who think that is is ok to treat a kid how ever they feel like….like their slave…like their property….like how Hitler treated the jews….thats the way that kids are treated
to all the people who is reponding to TINY”S post, read again. cant u see this person is sending a message? it’s wrong to Hit your mother, but i belive he/she is a hurting person. someone has to take alot of will power not to raise hand on dere parent who was abuse. So instead of posting judgement comments, maybe we can ask this TINY person some questions instead. i think he/she is trying to say someting. so please let’s be nice.
Some parents need blows from their children. i mean koolpweh.
Like when your mom brings home a man two years older than her daughter and when dad’s girlfriend is your age, 17.
Trust me, that stinks and it hurts. The fathers dont care at all about their family. They think they enjoying themselves with girls that could be their children and their own children are hurting inside. It is a shame in Dominica, and a disgarce on those young women part and have no respect for themselves and just want things and money, and hoarding peoples husbands. They both are doomed to hell. Look at the men, they all suffering with diabetes and pressure, and looking old, and when they dying they running back to wify. It is a crisis in Dominica. There are no more fammily structure in DA. Dog eat dog world.
I am a parent and some of us do provoke our children to extreme wrath.Whether or not this was so in that case, I hope the lady ask her mother for forgiveness because she has actually brought a curse upon herself.
she’s only doing what she has been taught…. what has been done to her in the past…hey kids out there…you are not supposed to to be beaten with belts and branches…you are not supposed to be slapped in the face by your parent…..no one deserve that type of abuse not even an animal….that is not disciple and it is not appropriate punishment …..it is abuse…and if your parent abuse you in such manner….call the appropriate authorities….don’t relent…keep going to the cops every time your are abused….this has got to stop
parents please seek counseling on the proper way to discipline and talk to your kids….stop calling them names…stop judging and criticizing….
TINY shut your gundies!
I’ve read some of you post and you are not giving any positive remarks here. You seem to be a very bitter person and all you care about is retaliation. Hope you’re not a parent or plan on having children. It’s people like you that has the world the way it is now and stop making everything look like abuse. I was slapped and given one or two strokes with a belt by my parents and I’m a very happy person.
SA KI KA WIVAY NOU?
WHERE ARE OUR MORALS?
WHERE IS SELF-CONTROL?
WHERE IS RESPECT?
WHERE IS FAMILY BONDS?
WHERE BTOTHERLY LOVE?
ARE WE GOING TO WAIT TILL WE GO JAIL TO SAY “I LOVE MY MOM/DAY” WHEN DBS VISITS ON CHRISTMAS DAY?
OR SHOW IT WITH TEARS AT THEIR GRAVE SITES?
WAKE UP MY PEOPLE
The daughters daughter will do the same!!
Parents, do not anger your children, but rear them in the discipline and in the teaching of Our Lord
Fathers, don’t make your children bitter about life. Instead, bring them up in Christian discipline and instruction
And you, fathers, do not irritate your children, but bring them up tenderly with true Christian training and advice
As bad as the argument may be or how much ur mother provoke u. hitting her is the last thing that should be on your mind..
That’s one person u should never lay your hands on!!
The best thing for this young lady to do is ask her mother to forgive her and then ask God for forgiveness..
as bad as what ever may seem with your child hitting them with leather belts and guava whips and electric wire and punching them should be the last thin on your mind…..this has never worked in the past it does more damage than good
the best thing to do is ask your child for forgiveness and ask god for forgiveness
Well tiny…reading from your posts you were obviously abused as a child..physically, verbally, emotionally….maybe more. i strongly recommend intense counseling. It will help you. You seem to be a very bitter person because of the abuse.
Tiny, If you have any children, don’t be suprised to get the same treatment. Children live by example, please be a good example to your child, let them learn and understand that it is better and wiser to walk away from certain situations, and to get help in situations like this, and don’t tell me the daughter could not seek help in this day and age. Raising her hand on her mother displays an ungrateful child with no love, respect and honor for her parents and the Lord. Go seek help girl, you really need it. It is true that we have some bad parents, but let God punish them in his own way, he did not live it for you to do. The bible say whatsoever a man soweth that shall he reap. If she had no love for you she would have done with your @&$$ since in the womb, remember that. Personally, and finally, there is no reason under the sun that a child is supposed to beat her/his parents, NON WHATSOEVER!!!!!!!
i said she probably deserved it
Dosent matter how troublesome she may be.never ever raise yur hands on yur mom.u r so cursed if u did that to yur mom.
never raise your hand on a child past the age of 7 no matter hoe trouble some they may be…..you spank a a child to keep away form danger….you spank a child who bites and hits other kids…for temper tantrum etc… and be careful spanking could lead to beatings and abuse
I agree 100+ %.
Admin…” I agree 100+%” response was for coco. I see it under tiny’s response
TINY she deserve it? put your hands on your mother and you will die with your hands in the air, this happened years ago to a man on the south of the island, honour thy mother and father and your days will be longer shame on her, cause what goes around comes around and cycles do continue her kids will do the same to her
where that “tiny” come out na. Miss Illiterate or Mr. illiterate
girls u is a ignorant and arrogant fool. chubby said it, and you is prove of that, women like you are just crabs
TINY same on you! i beleive you hit your mother already. so u know they have break your hand to put you in your coffin. sheme on you. i beleive even the grave will refuse you. i hope they leave you like a dog by the road side with you both hand up when u die.
tiny you are the most ignorant fool i have ever come across.. i cannot seem to understand why you sit around waiting to comment on everything that posts. i’m reading a lot of you but you aint saying nothing girl.. wise up chica and stop being an idiot….
TINY go hide under a rock!
@ Tiny, it seems you have no lack of understanding of the term mother and no understanding of the term “SELF RESPECT”. One who respects himself or herself would never say the thing you are stating. If you are on the post to be ignorant and use your mind like a damn fool then I think you may be in the wrong area. God forbid you ever raised your hands on your mother, that would explain why the devil is in you right now writing such comments. Grow up!
God forbid you you ever raise your hand to a child who is fully able to understand right from wrong….the only ones that should be spanked are the one who lack understanding….
the person with the name “tiny”, maybe did not go to school.
tiny you just looking for attention. Grow up
I hope when your turn comes around, you will sing the same tune. NO PARENTS deserve being beaten by their kids.
Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger by the way you treat them. Rather, bring them up with the discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord..Ephesians 6:4
or mothers
why would u hit ur mother smh!
doh worry, her hand will stay up when she die. LOL!!
@ mouth of the..
If she asks God for forgiveness with a humble and contrite heart, she will also have to make penance and sacrifice for her to be forgiven. She should also ask her mother for forgiveness. She should not go through life hating her mother. Only then could God forgive her.
ADMIN this isn’t a stone… a piece of SHEHBON dat dere lol
CHILLLLDDD hmmmmmm no one on earth can replace your mother nuh girl!!!!!!!! all now in the cemetery I have to go and visit my mother, and if I could give back what I own because of my mother hard work, just to have ONE MORE DAY with my mother I would give up EVERYTHING…….girl go back on your knees and ask your mother to forgive you!!!! NOBODY on earth can love you like your mother girl!!! all now u bring tears to my eyes and I dont even know you…..
it have people out there that well want a mother!!! that break my heart….
i wonder if is that same young woman who wrote to Bella yesterday… too much pressure from the comments i see
another dominican idiot does sumting…………foolish cows
hmmm…….sad… that gurl needs to read her bible… honor ur parents so u will be blessed!! if they do u wrong God will vindicate u!!! bless up
the bible also say dont provoke ur children to wrath u dunno exactly what happened so dont be bias
no matter what never lay hands on your mommy!!!!!
children honor ur mother and father so ur days on earth may b long
So those of us who don’t want to be on this earth for too long can start to give parents blows. right?
Come on man! That’s your mother no matter what brought on the argument she should have never placed her hand on her mon… For the bible says “honor thy mother and father”…
I grew up knowing NEVER hit your parents. If you cannot control this you have no self control.
Parents do not provoke your children to anger but no child has the right to hit his or her parent.
