How is this a bad thing? Showing this kid the consequences for his actions might keep him from becoming the kind of criminal rioting on the streets of Portland every night.
In 4th grade I did a purposely lazy job on a Geography project.
Little did I know the teacher was Croatian and knew my grandmother who was also Croatian. She didn’t call my parents about my work, she called my Grandmother.
My Grandmother called me and screamed at me for the longest time. “You’ve embarrassed me in front of the whole Croatian Chicago community.”
Needless to say I never got a bad grade ever again!
Sometimes kids need a little more than their parents.
