I will post the video shortly for you all to watch and decide. At the mean time, let me explain this is something that happened last year but I thought it would be interesting to discuss. Do you guys think the father went too far or was an appropriate punishment?
I think this was a good way of telling your daughter that your not going to take any gruff from her. Most of todays teens in the USA are arrogant and disrespectful to say the least. I read about this father and how he took her laptop. I think it was a good punishment.
There are lots of ways to do that without taking a gun and shooting an expensive piece of equipment. Thinking about this now it could be that this was just a dummy case and the real laptop is somewhere else because all he did was show us a closed laptop.
I remember this video from a while ago. When I first watched this, I completely agreed with the dad. And I still do. It's most likely a laptop he bought so he had every right to do with it as he pleased. And considering that he claims to have warned her before, public embarrassment was probably the only way he could use to keep his daughter away from disrespecting him. It's a bit barbaric, but sometimes a show of - power? - is needed.
