In her words,
“My son learned a lesson.. see I don’t play bullying of any sort.. when he was bullied I was up at the school. Yet he decided to be the antagonizer and bully last week.. a child was walking slow and my son decided to push him, the child pushed my son back and my son punched him. Come to find out, the child was walking slow to accommodate for his shoe not being attached to the base.
Like his shoes was talking from the back.. broke my heart. My son said he didn’t know his shoes were “broken” but that’s why we don’t treat people like that. So Saturday morning I told him to grab his wallet and we went to the shoe store where my son bought him 2 pairs of shoes. sneakers and some crocs. I made him use his chore and birthday money, He was sick to his stomach. But with trying to raise a respectable child comes lessons”

My job as a teacher would be so much easier if we had more parents like you!!”@slaykurdae_: “first of all, this was a great way to punish bad behavior. also, notice how she shared the experience without plastering her child’s face all over the internet by recording him crying or suffering some form of physical humiliation. discipline without demeaning.”@move1814: “Curious, is their a reason his behavior has changed recently? Is there a root to why it’s changed? You don’t have to get specific just curious if that has been addressed? You mentioned him being bullied, is that still going on?”@NocGez: “I have two daughters and a year old son and man this parenting thing is no joke.. shout to you working to raise your child right… hopefully he’ll learn two things being respectful is expectation and he got a top quality parent that seems dedicated to raising a good kid!”@ChinHong423: “Are you punishing him because of what he did or because of social media because none of this needed to be told especially you buying the child shoes, cause if this goes viral and that kid sees it you didn’t help.”@shesbadass: “Love this so much. Great parenting”My son learned a lesson.. see I don’t play bullying of any sort.. when he was bullied I was up at the school. Yet he decided to be the antagonizer and bully last week.. a child was walking slow and my son decided to push him, the child pushed my son back and my son punched him
