    Being a parent is a tough job, I have three kids and I can tell you, I worry and plan for them more than anything else.

    I am always trying to come up with new ways to get through to my kids from punnishments that stick, to open discussions and debates about every day situations to help them learn to be critical thinkers, not robots.

    When I saw this story, I thought, wow, that is a great mom:
    FOXNews.com - 'Meanest Mom on Planet' Sells Teen Son's Car After Finding Booze Under Seat - Local News | News Articles | National News | US News

    Some may see her as too strict, but she set the rules, and she showed her son that there are penalties for breaking the rules. I predict this boy becomes a very successful man.



    I believe there are so many failures these days because there is nobody teaching kids to expect failures and how to live inside the rules. Kids seem to want everything now and if they cannot have it now, they go into temper tantrums.

    I'm sorry but the real world requires very hard work to succeed, if you expect to get everything handed to you, your gonna end up hating the government and attacking everything out of bitterness, like someone we all know here on this forum.


    The point is, your every move is a lesson to your kids, they see everything and learn their values from you. If you are soft or weak, they will suffer for your lack.

    lol, I posted it at the other site- I am pretty sure a couple will disagree with mom's actions there. ;)

    What a horrible mom. Can't she just let her kid have some fun? I mean.....come one....let the kid have a few kicks. If anything, she should get drunk with him and show him how to do it right. He should sue his mother.

    I did some research into this boy. And apparently his mother has only made his drinking problem worse because of her abusive parenting techniques.

    Here is a picture of him before the car was sold;

    And here is a picture of him now;

    She has ruined her sons life because she is too much like TJ. A stick in the mud.

    Wow, he has gone off the deep end, he is drinking Budweiser, what a waste of human life.

    May as well drag him out to the woods and put a bullet into his head because he no longer belongs to the human race if he will drink Budweiser

    pisswater, yuck. Years and years ago when I did drink, I usually drank German lagers.

    On top of taking this kids car away, selling it, I sure hope she grounded his ass thoroughly.

    Hey I like Bud, whats wrong with it ? 5% strength and a nice hoppy bite.

    I do like German beer too. I approve of their beer purity laws.

    We should all meet up in Germany for the Oktoberfest beer festival sometime
