Yes, it is sad that teens post this kind of thing, and that is what social media is encouraging, but if you look at what part of her face is showing, she looks so sad. Parents, your kids will make mistakes, and some of them will be worse then others but DO NOT shame them on the internet or in front of people, it will make them hate you and go against your wishes just to spite you.

It has been a while since I have been upset by anything posted here. Most times, it is about art, it is funny, it is cute, or it is nice. This series has a good intention, and it truly has some very funny entries. However, many entries are funny at first look but if you think about them, they reveal very, very questionable parenting ethics. Shaming your children publicly? Using normally positive things and turning them into punishment? Even using psychological violence? What seemingly might be "old style parenting" and getting rid of an "anti-authoritarian" style of raising kids truly reflects the immaturity of those parents. Since when is it wise to replace trust by fear? Since when does incomprehensible punishments lead to learning? I am sure that this posting along with some comments I left will get me tons of downvotes since people are here for the fun, but seeing something I perceive to be so wrong simply quenches my desire to post funny or puny comments.
parenting is certainly hard...some ideas are ingenious...but why do you have to put pictures of your kids' punishment online??
@Arty: you are not alone with this question. If you do not teach your children that a family should stick together – including not to sahe each other publicly – which values should they learn? This of course does not mean not to say "sorry" to others.
