The wife of former Hallandale High School principal Darren Jones surrendered Saturday to face an aggravated child abuse charge stemming from the same Jan. 9 incident that landed her husband in legal hot water earlier this year, the couple's lawyer confirmed.
Serena Jones, a seventh-grade teacher at Driftwood Middle in Hollywood, is alleged to have failed to protect her teenage daughter, according to her lawyer, Eric Schwartzreich.
Her husband, Darren Jones, was arrested Jan. 15 and accused of beating his daughter with an electrical cord, scarring and bruising her arms, legs, back and hands, according to an incident report. Schwartzreich said Serana Jones is not accused of any violence against the daughter.
The incident took place at their home in Cooper City. Schwartzreich said the incident is an example of a couple attempting to discipline a wayward teenager and should not be prosecuted as abuse.
"They both were doing nothing other than trying to protect their teenage daughter," he said. "They only want what's best for their children. They want them to be productive and caring members of society. The Joneses did not abuse this teenager or any child. There is a difference between child abuse and lawful corporal punishment."

I left a nice comment there-
Obviously, the Jones' did not know that the Convention on the Rights of the Child was SUPPLANTED into America with the CAPTA act of 1974 and has been DEFACTO in force ever since-

This isn't our grandparent's and Founder's America any more. It's just another rotten tyranny enforcing European Socialism.
If you disbelieve that, there's an awful lot you don't know. Just like the Jones have found out The Hard Way.
That's why ALL PARENTS should know about and support the Parental Rights Amendment- http://parentalrights.org
