TikTok Georgia Mom Punishes Son In School Parking Lot
I love this mom. I absolutely love her. It has nothing to do with how she went about disciplining her misbehaving child. Although I really love that too. No, what…
I love this mom. I absolutely love her. It has nothing to do with how she went about disciplining her misbehaving child. Although I really love that too. No, what I love about her is how much she loves her child and how involved she is in his life. Our country would be 100% better if every parent was like her. I cannot speak to raising girl children. I haven't done it. I would not know the first thing about it. Boy children? I was one, and I've been raising one for twenty-one years. I consider myself an expert.
As I was growing up, any time my mom (she was the disciplinarian in the house) was having to reign me in she would say, "It's my job to harness your spirit but not break it." Once boys start to come of age. We're a problem. Testosterone is a scary hormone. At a certain point all males start to "smell themselves." By that I mean, we start to think we're pretty hot stuff. We don't need anyone else. We don't need to do anything we don't want to do. Sound familiar? That inner drive, confidence, whatever you want to call it-if "harnessed"-is a good thing. I try to keep that in mind with my boy,
This Georgia mom's motto is "Play stupid games, you get stupid prizes." In other words, "Son, you do something dumb, you're going to reap the dumb benefit of your action." Apparently, her son was acting up in class. There was an assignment that he basically told his teacher that when it came to him doing it? She could pound sand.
This mother was notified and decided a stupid prize was necessary immediately for her son's stupid game. She documented the entire story in the TikTok video below. This is spectacular parenting. Somewhere in Texas, my mother is raising a glass of iced tea to this mom's spirit harnessing technique.
