10 Kids Punished by Their Parents ... in Public

I don’t believe these kids will do the same thing again, the exception may be substance abuse. I would rather try this than let my child slide down a spiral of not accepting responsibity for their behavior. I have already had my pre-schooler apologize to our friends when she threw a world class tantrum.
my kind of parents.i loved the i will work for food one!
I think the 8 year old is too young, but the teenagers, I hope they learned something.
8 is not too young to learn a lesson - if this had been done to the teens at age 8 they wouldn’t have ever done it again.
FINALLY people are beginning to control their children again and not treat them like entitled, special little snowflakes
My parents used this kind of punishment in all different kinds of ways. I remember sitting in a lawn chair staring at the woods when camping once. My dad stood out at the camp site and brought attention to other campers that I was being punished. It worked.
All 6 of us kids still laugh with the parents about it at family gatherings and all 6 of us grew up to be great Adults.
I think it’s good.
HA HA! Stupid kids
If your 14-y-o is using drugs and vandalizing schools, you’ve already failed as a parent. Hard to see how this is going to help. The public shaming is just a desperation measure by parents who clearly already don’t know how to raise their children.
While I am not sure I could make my children hold a sign on a street corner, I think parents have to do what they think is best for their children in any given situation. Every child or parent responds to and learns from events differently.
Michelle, how lucky that you and your many adult children were perfect and didn’t do stupid things or make bad decisions. Or maybe you just don’t know about their mistakes because they could not confide in you or live up to your standards.
These children may have done stupid things or made bad decisions but we can’t judge or assume they will be stupid adults.
Many wonderful people provide for, set good examples for, and love their children, only to have them grow up to make one stupid/bad decision after another.
We all have to do the best we can with tools and resources we have at our disposal. Then we pray that our children will be happy productive adults.
What do you do if your 12 year old son sends an X Rated text message…?

If you honestly think that this will help? You honestly truly think that kids will learn something? All you’re making them do is doing whatever they did wrong, with more secrecy.
If you’ve already allowed t hem to smoke and vandalize, you’ve already failed as a parent.
This is preposterous, When I was a teen I would have loved to have a sign that says “I like to smoke weed.” It’s quite similar to what my high school did. Printing up shirts that read “Dress Code Violator” and making you give up whatever you were wearing to wear one really wasn’t that effective. I wore some pretty damned out of dress code items purposefully before I finally got one.
Fine site. I appreciate your effort, have a good day!
This is truly an awesome bit of reading, not many blogs compare to the amount of clear info given away here for free!
Useful info. Nice piece of info, have a nice day!
Most people, when they criticize, whether they like it or hate it, they’re talking about product. That’s not art, that’s the result of art. Art, to whatever degree we can get a handle on (I’m not sure that we really can) is a process. It begins in the heart and the mind with the eyes and hands.
