She's 5 though. How would she know? At least I hope a 5 year old isn't surfing YouTube.Momto2boys973 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 06, 2018 12:49 pm While I agree with the dad’s punishment, I don’t agree with adding humiliation to it. How can you teach a child not to bully by humiliating them online?
I always try to be really careful not to humiliate my children even when they deserve a scolding. I take them aside and privately do whatever needs to be done, but never in front of others, not even a brother. Humiliation doesn’t teach anything, it just hurts.

I applaud a parent taking definitive action to stop reoccurring bad behavior.
Agreed. Discipline but dont humiliate. Thats not how I do things either.Momto2boys973 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 06, 2018 12:54 pm I think making her walk was a good punishment. Natural consequences.
But I agree with you that adding humiliation to it was uncalled for. I get the whole idea of her experiencing the humiliation she does to others, but I don’t think that’s the best way to teach her empathy.

Not only does he force his kid to walk the five miles, he takes a video and posts it to youtube to humiliate her.

Being a kid is hard enough without being humiliated by your own parents.
