There was a man who disliked his son so intensely that he frequently whipped him.
One day, while the father was beating his son again, his neighbor witnessed the scene. The neighbor then picked up a club, ran over, and began helping to beat the abominable son directly on the head, saying, "I am beating him to satisfy his father's wish."
