I recently read an article in the Huffington Post  about a parent who punished her child by posting a picture of her on Facebook with a red X over her mouth because she mouthed off. They captioned the photo saying that she is no longer able to post on Facebook. This is totally ridiculous!

My daughter is only three years old, but I still have an opinion on this matter. Why as a parent would you even use Facebook as a source of punishment? The first thing I would do is take every source of technological device away from my child. I would not be worried about humiliating or punishing her on Facebook. As a parent, we have to do better than this. What is the world turning into that we have to use social media to punish our children?

I understand that this is a new age and technology is a big part of how we interact with one another, but how would using such tactics help the situation. Is your child going to stop disrespecting you because you used Facebook to punish them, I would probably guess not! There has to be a better way to adapt our parenting skills to these new times. Let’s try harder!

What do you think about punishing your kids publicly on Facebook?
