 Dad finds out daughter is a bully, so he takes her victim on shopping spree, teaches his girl a lesson. This dad from North Carolina used a unique approach to discipline his daughter after he found out that she was bullying another child. Bullying is just as much of an endemic issue with one in every three students facing the wrath of bullying at some point in their lives, as reported by the government's anti-bullying website. Most of the causes of bullying are due to kids growing up in broken homes but sometimes children turn into bullies for no apparent reason other than to seem cool in front of their friends. This young teen did the exact same thing. Her father soon found out and punished her in the most unique way which didn't just teach her a lesson but also comforted the victim, reports L.I.V.E.5 and E.W.S. Ryan Reese, the victim, said she was being made fun of by her schoolmate for the way she looked and the way she dressed. So, Randy Smalls, the bully's father from Monks Corner, South Carolina decided to teach his daughter a lesson by taking Reese shopping with the money that was initially meant for his daughter. Talking to the publication, Reese said, It's just like me and my friends, just like talking and stuff and then all of a sudden I'm just getting picked on, bullied about my clothes, how I wear it. She's a seventh grader from Berkeley Middle School who's being bullied for quite a while. They were just really hurting me and it took my depression really down and like really hit me hard and stuff. I literally had enough so I told my mom what happened, the girl said. As it turned out, the bully was none other than her cousin. So, Reese told her mother and the news soon reached her uncle, who thought he should do something to help his niece out. Explaining what he did, Smalls said, Well, growing up I was bullied so I first understood how Ryan felt. She, the daughter was supposed to go shopping that following Saturday, and her punishment was that the money that she was supposed to go and use, Ryan gets the money. I think that's the perfect punishment because my daughter likes to dress. So if they picking on a student because of the dressing, then I take away from her and give it to somebody else. Smalls then shared the incident on Facebook, according to the publication, and was applauded for his actions. After that, he took Reese on a trip to the hair salon and then went shopping. I believe as a parent, we have to take responsibility for what our children do. We can teach our children and we can do whatever we can to help our children, but we gotta first take responsibility, Smalls explained. While the preteen thoroughly enjoyed the experience, it was the experience with Smalls she cherished more than the clothes and the hair makeup, one that changed her life. He's the first father figure I ever had. Sorry, ever since my father died, it's just, it's just really hard. Now I have someone I can look up to, as she struggled to hold back her tears. Things, however, are better now for the cousins as Reese says they are now good friends. In the case of Smalls, he has started a community called Parents Against Bullying and works closely with Berkeley County Beats Bullying and CAVE, which stands for Communities Against Violence Everywhere, to increase awareness. Charmaine Jordan lauded the father's efforts at making a good girl out of his daughter and wrote, good job dad. I'm happy daughter humbled herself and allowed herself a change of heart. This is how we grow. Shannon Fincham added, beautiful. Love how he really explained and showed her instead of just freaking out on her. Great parents and I'm so glad she is learning to use her voice to stick up for herself. She is a beautiful girl and I absolutely love that she is able to gain confidence from this. Both girls learn something that they will take into adulthood.
