WTH is wrong with people? This is why we have such poorly behaved kids and adults: bad parenting.
How about you parent your kids in a way that's effective for YOUR kids. I'll parent mine in a way that's effective for them.
DP. I do get that different kids need different things, and that parenting styles are really not that important, but is there ANY research that suggests pushups in a public place is an effective discipline technique? Or anything similar to pushups in a public place? Particularly a place that might be a little humiliating like a bathroom floor?
My mom used to make me clean our bathrooms as a disciplinary technique. Quelle Horreur. How humiliating.
Are you seriously suggesting it's basically the same thing?
You clearly want to argue about it, but honestly, don't you think the parent knows what's best for her child? She took him into the bathroom because it was more private. MYOB.
AND THEN SHE LET SOMEONE PHOTOGRAPH IT and post all over Facebook, and talked to CNN about it.
Private my a$$. She gave up the right to have people Mind their own business when she went out of the way to publicize this.

Having a mom who dresses like that woman is humiliation enough.

On the bathroom floor? I would never. I'm more of a "we are leaving the store and having a good chat about this and you are losing privileges" kind of person myself, but different strokes.

I would never do something that requires me to be in a Hobby Lobby in the first place.

Going to Hobby Lobby is punishment enough.

Sure. Seems like an effective parenting technique for that one kid. Good for the mom for instilling discipline. I don't see the issue as long as washed his hands.

“Quote:
Parents, have you ever asked your kiddo to do something or behave properly and they've ignored you? Yeah, you're not alone.
To combat that behavior, one Texas mom had her son drop down to pushup position in the middle of a shopping trip at a craft store.”
What say you? Would you ever do this?
