ORLANDO, Fla. -- The mother who was videotaped while spraying her 2 1/2-year-old daughter with a high-pressure water hose at an Orlando car wash on Feb. 24 has been arrested and charged with child abuse.

The mother told authorities she did it because the child was throwing a tantrum, and that she did not have the hose on full blast.

Come on, it's not like she sprayed her in the face or anything. I just wish the video was better.

Ummmm..."The surveillance video from a car wash near Rouse Road and the East-West Expressway showed the toddler trying to hide her face as her mother sprayed her in the face and down her legs."

"Nikki Ramirez, who is pregnant, told authorities she did it because the child was throwing a tantrum, and that she did not have the hose on full blast."

Used a pressure washer a time or two. The water is either off or on full blast. Next time you go wash your car put your hand in front of the nozzle and pull the trigger.

Some people should not have kids.

Exactly. Not sure what you guys find funny about this story.

Hey, those kids are hard to get clean sometimes! I think that Sears could really do something with this...how about the Craftsman PowerKid Cleaner?

Didn't look like she aimed at her face in the video, but either way this woman was way out of line, and you're right about the pressure - she lied.

I'm still chuckling at the headline, though.
