Better parents than teachers or police, eh? It could have been much worse. |

Um. I like it. I just wish she would have gone further. Haha. Oh. And the sandwich thing. There was a subway ad the bottom when she said that.

He should have been spanked.Of course a slap on the wrist and being told, "Don't do that again" works in theory, but not reality. Just like communism, look at Russia! |

On one hand I feel for the kid being embarassed; I mean, who wouldn't be? On the other, the kid probably knew his mom had hit the ceiling before and this incident of BULLYING, was the last straw. Kudos to Mom; too many times today we are so utterly full of rationalizations about kids; they beat up other kids, they disrupt classrooms, they threaten and sometimes, even attack teachers, and at times, parents accept it!Nah, this kid got off lucky; his mom cares enough not to give a flying flip of how wrong it looks. |

dude i fell really sorry for that kid. he shouldn't get this much punishment. i would rather get beat than be humiliated. Psychical pain hurts less than mental |

The mother was parenting well here. She saw behavior that was grossly unacceptable and acted swiftly and justly to correct it.He won't hate his mother. Eventually, he'll grow up and realize that she was doing her best to save him from a life of trouble. It's not like he got an F on his algebra test. He assaulted a kid!!! It's totally inappropriate behavior and it must be dealt with accordingly. I find that embarassment and temporary social outcasting is an effective way of correcting unacceptable behavior. Kudos to mom. |

"I laugh at all the people who say ZOMG KID GON BE SCARRED!!!1!!!1!one. This is North America's problem."I kind of agree there, but it's not just North America, you know. A lot of parents like to spoil their kids rotten, and their kids learn to have little respect for their parents and for others. Either that, or they don't want to bother raising kids. People need to start waking up!! |

I think the mom was right on this one. She said it herself, she was doing it because she loved him. I'm sure when this guy grows up and has kids of his own, he'll do something like this if his kids act up. I remember hating my parents whenever I was punished. But I quickly got over that, and as I matured, I knew they punished me out of love so I'd know right from wrong. This kid will figure that out, if he hasn't already. |

i totally agree with what the mom did, i know when i get lectures all i wanna do is leave and i don't listen because i'm annoyed. they don't do much good.
but, if my mom ever made me do that, i'd be pretty miserable. i'd learn my lesson, though.and to all the people saying spankings don't work -- they do, at least with me. at first i was a good kid because i was afraid of being spanked, but now that i'm older i know what's right and wrong, and am capable of making decisions myself. and i have morals and values that are nicely drilled into my head. |

He'll hate his mom for a while, I know I would, but that's once less kid to worry about going criminal in the future. |

did the mom already have the board and the hat ready? or did she just make it when she foud out? what kind of person do you have to be to put a 12 year old kid on the streets of n.y telling everybody hes dumb...wait, if it was my kid, i probably would have done the same thing.
nevermindbut yes, i agree with the mom. embarassment is the worst. for anybody. unless the kid is an attention whore, then you cant do it, because they will enjoy being the center of attention. and plus the fact that the kid had to be on the streets, and tv, AND the internet. poor kid. he deserved it. but, i tell you, ipods are taking over the world. |

Makes me proud to live here. Walking around North Little Rock though? NLR is not a fun place to say the least. |

..and here I thought public humiliation, as a form of punishment, went out of style in the middle ages.Definitely the worst thing I've seen this week. |

That mother is amazing. I'm glad she stepped up like that and made her child do that. Seriously, you can spank and ground your child all you want. That doesn't do crap anymore. Public embarrassment for something they did wrong? BEAUTIFUL. |

AT LAST! an example of a mother who is actively taking control in teaching and raising her child. If only more people were this involved with their children. |
