children

...and sometimes "good" can hurt.

Example: It was on the news last week (anybody see it?) where a kid kept on stealing money from his parents' wallets. So the parents made him go and stand at an intersection, holding a sign that read: "I stole money from my mom and dad!"

Some people were angry about it and said the child should be taken away...but I think: Right on!

Better to have the kid hurt now than to grow up in constant pain. I applaud the parents for doing the right thing. It's going to make the kid a better person when he grows up; knowing that if he does anything wrong, there's consequences to face.:)

I like that, wish I thought of it... Their's this one kid, he would have a Billboard :D
 
I've graduated from a billboard to a sandwich-board sign.:eek:

(sorry if I missed the point, Smelly...let me ponder it some more, mmkay? I know there's a message there to learn by. :) )
