Motivating Children »
A creative mom from Oklahoma came up with a way to teach her unrepentant daughter a lesson. Since the girl suffered from poor grades, regular tardiness to class and talking back to teachers, the mom made her stand on a street corner with a sign that said (paraphrased) "Preparing for my future. Will work for food."
Apparently some folks who saw the display called talk radio stations to blast her for the behavior (some praised it) and at least one passing motorist called police to report psychological abuse. Please. We can all use a little humiliation now and again if it helps get us back on track, and kids are no exception. Suck it up and deal with it.
