Dad forces son to carry shaming sign
A boy who got home half-an-hour late forced to hold up a shaming sign on the streets by his father.
The sign read: ‘Homeless Won’t Listen to Parents,’ reports Daily Mail.
When the boy broke the curfew, the father thought that simply grounding his son would not be enough and hence came up with the idea of publicly humiliating him.
The dad made his son parade up and down a street with the shaming sign to teach him respect, says the daily.
The 12-year-old carried the sign between 9.15am and 5pm a day after breaking the curfew by half-an-hour.
The father told NBC4 that all he wants his son to do is get back home at 8.30 at night. If his son wants to be an adult, he should stay outside the door of the house. The father says as he pays for his son's upkeep and even the roof over his house, the boy should follow his orders.
The father and son spent about eight hours roaming the streets with the sign but took breaks every two hours and had meals, too. A neighbour who did not agree with the father and thought the punishment was demeaning to the child, called the police.
