That's awesome. The girl is lucky to have such a caring Mom.

Yeah that's not bad, how about make her do the HW instead? She's not getting anything done standing out there with the sign.

Re: THIS is how you parent.
I know that by the time I was her age, there's nobody on this Earth who could make me do that. Luckily, I cared about school, so I doubt it would have come up.
From a parent's perspective? I have no children. I can't imagine doing this. I can't imagine having the sort of children who need this done. I'm at a loss. |

And I will add the question - what does this do to improve her behavior exactly? Sure, it's embarassing, but it can be avoided by a simple "no, I won't do that." |

Re: THIS is how you parent.
This is stupid.
I've seen grown men made to do this, but at least then, nobody thought it was gonna change them. This is punishment by embarrasment, and no - I don't think its an effective parenting tool, at all. I'd have told my parents exactly what they could do with that sign. This isnt mental abuse... or, at least no more than "you can't watch TV" is. But I don't think its anymore useful than grounding/taking away privleges/etc. Who knows. I don't have kids. But this wouldn't have worked with me. |

A lot of people say this is a form of mental abuse. Personally, I applaud this kind of parenting. What do you all think? link [/ QUOTE ] It's nothing but a gimmick and won't work. The reason that the kid is a spoiled rotten little brat is that her parents didn't raise her right. The sign should read: My parents did a [censored] job of raising me and are making me stand out here with this sign so they don't have to admit it to themselves. |

Re: THIS is how you parent.
Wouldn't it have been easier to have been a good parent and raise a child that didn't talk smack to their teachers in the first place?

Retarded. The mom should have been this creative when her child was 7.
