Go to Jail
The grandmother may claim temporary insanity at seeing such happen, but her grand daughter was a minor as well as not harming the grandmother in any way. She also beat the child with a cane till it broke.
However noble the grandmother's motives might be-she attacked a minor-and thus may be charged with assault as well as be charged with child abuse. She will probably spend some time in jail-a just punishment for harming a child. Quote:

I totally agree with the above post.

An enraged violent attack is counter evidence of noble motives, is it not?

I don't care if she was in bed with a billy goat, you don't beat your kid senseless with a cane.
She should be treated the same way as anyone who abuses a child, no more and no less.

I'm a little curious as to whether or not the OP was expecting a different answer...
Should there be any excuse to severly beating a child?

What gets me is that, while we all seem to agree that beating a child is wrong, so many other people all across the planet seem to be able to come up with reasons to batter children.

Mental illness is the "reason" for battering a child...people just cannot be in their right mind, to do such things...to anyone, but especially a child.
