A six year old child was crying. But before the mother could reach her, one mother asked her what happened. A two year old slapped her arm, the child explains. " Does it hurt?" The mother of the two year old asked. The six year old child just cried, and the mother of the two year old did nothing.

Does the degree of pain defines if the action is good or bad? In the absence of pain, is the action justified? It doesn't hurt anyway.

It's like eating fatty foods and not have hypertension.
...smoking packs and packs of cigarette everyday and not have lung cancer.
...driving beyond the allowed speed and not cause an accident.
...like a philandering husband who doesn't get caught.

It doesn't hurt them anyway.

Does the age of the aggressor excuses him from the action?

It's like a teenager eating too many fatty foods, he is young and looks healthy anyway.
...A twenty something gentleman smoking 2 packs of cigarette a day, he is starting to enjoy his life anyway.
...A car racer driving beyond the allowed speed in a densely populated district, he is a racer anyway.
...A thirty year old man who sleeps around but married to a forty something woman, he is young anyway.

That six year old is my daughter.

Does knowing that I am the mother added color to my story?

She is thinking that way because her daughter is involved anyway...
