Pastor Creflo Dollar Arrested For Choking Teenage Daughter

Megachurch Pastor Creflo Dollar Jr. was booked into the Fayette County Jail in Atlanta, GA around 2 a.m. this morning, June 8th. His bond was set at $5,000 a few hours later during his court hearing, and he was released shortly after the hearing ended. Creflo is facing battery charges for having "intentionally caused physical harm to his teenage daughter by grabbing her around the neck and choking her," according to the arrest warrant.

Apparently he and his 15-year-old daughter got into a heated argument about her going out to a party, when suddenly he "attacked her," as his daughter claims. Creflo's strong hand wrapped around his daughter's throat severed some flesh, as a scratch mark was left on the right side of her throat. Upon leaving jail this morning, Creflo simply stated to reporters questioning him about the violent incident:

"Discipline my kid. Love 'em."

He has not been prohibited from interacting with his daughter, so maybe they can settle this personal matter quietly at home before the media gets involved any further.

This is exactly why I don't go to church, these pastors preach one thing and live another. Of course he would say that she "attacked" him, that's what anyone facing charges like this would say. I bet he had the audacity to stand up in front of his church at one time and tell all the men in attendence actions like these are wrong. It's the same thing with the pastors here in my city. Get to know God for yourselves people, man will only let you down.

You going to church or not going to church has nothing to do with this issue.The issue here is that every home is different and is not one size discipline fit all.The bottom line and the challenge facing most parent is what is apropriate measure of discipline for their teenage daughter and son.one thing that parent should not do is to hit their daughter or in any way shape or form.This is by far the worse discipline tool in our discipline tool box.If is your girl you hit her she would not forget for the rest of her life, not only that she would find it had trusting any man had a slit resemblance of her dad.If is a teenage he will take it on on his wife. These is not a winning receipe for any parent out there
