Facebook Parenting: For the troubled teen.

Warning: Since this video seems to have gone crazy, I figure I'll post this notice. I'm going to read a letter my 15 year old daughter wrote. There ARE some curse words in it. None of them are incredibly bad, but they are definitely things a little kid shouldn't hear... not to mention things MY KID shouldn't say!

My daughter thought it would be funny/rebellious/cool to post on her Facebook wall just how upset she was and how unfair her life here is; how we work her too hard with chores, never pay her for chores, and just in general make her life difficult.

She chose to share this with the entire world on Facebook and block her parent's from seeing it. Well, umm... she failed. As of the end of this video, she won't have to worry anymore about posting inappropriate things on Facebook...

Maybe a few kids can take something away from this... If you're so disrespectful to your parents and yourself as to post this kind of thing on Facebook, you're deserving of some tough love. Today, my daughter is getting a dose of tough love.

Wee need more parents like that, now a days kids are disrespectful and act like dumbasses, when I was 14 I worked around the house for extra money and cut people's lawns n shit, these kids act like its the end of the world to do some physical labor

Everyone here needs to google Dr. Peter Gray, and if you have more time read his book Free To Learn.

Children are not stupid, they are not worthless. Everyone here in favor of this kind of punishment will only be instigators of the problem, and scar their children deeply. There is a difference between shame and guilt. Shame says "I am bad" and therefore cannot improve (making the problem worse), guilt says "I did bad". This is Brené Brown's work. Look up her TEDtalk too.

Growing up, you did what you were told to avoid an ass beating. It build character n a sense of responsibility. so stop feeling sorry for yourself and get educated because nothing in life is free and the sooner you know that, the reality check you get when you get older wont be as painful.

This man is not a good father. I never realized how terrible parents are until I read the comments parents are leaving

Lol have you ever walked into a 15 years old girls room? It usually looks like a clothing store exploded there

[alienshinubie]

Why would one's own laundry be a daily chore? Isn't that something you do weekly?

The fuck?
