C’mon.
This woman is trying to do something about her child. If y’all have perfect children and did everything right in raising them, then you might have a say. Sure, this woman is black. Sure, she’s doing somethings you or I might not do. She is, however, struggling to overcome the very things that way too many FReepers bitch about everyday. Give her, or those like her, a little encouragement or help instead of snarky comments.

They mother seems to be doing her best, but it doesn’t help a child escape poverty if there is no dad around and she names the girl Lutisha.
I agree that the mom should be disciplining her child, but doing it on Facebook is inappropriate and disrespectful to the child. This video will be out there forever.
How would mom like it if her employer did this to her? :(
Agreed.
“Give her, or those like her, a little encouragement or help instead of snarky comments.”
Maybe the people snarking don’t have kids, or maybe they never had 12 year olds girls. They are pretty much the worst people on the face of the earth.
I was one, I had one, I’ve known others.
One that I know personally just had ALL her electronics taken away for the entire summer, if it had a cord it was gone, because she did not comply with the guidelines for use that her parents had laid out.
I don’t know that I’d do that, nor what this mother has done, but I think the “what” of the discipline is less important than that there is some.
