Father teaches daughter a lesson about facebook...

[Yo_Mama]

236. If a girl who is going on 16 complains about doing her own laundry

and a few household chores (I saw the whole video, thanks to those who posted it) then she is a spoiled brat.

By this age you ought to be doing some family chores as well as taking care of your own stuff. Sorry, we're humans and we have to learn to be adults. Chores such as the father explained are about the minimum, surely? I did a lot more than that by the time I was twelve and I would never tolerate a kid not doing something of the family work by that age. I never understood parents who take care of their kids as if they were babies until they were 18, and then are surprised when the kids can't handle being adults at 19.

Since the "cleaning lady" doesn't work all the time, it appears that the girl is more than happy to eat the dinner one of her parents makes. That's not slavery. That's what they owe to her. But no, she can't mop the floor. That's slavery.

I don't like the way she talked about the "cleaning lady", and just that mention proves that she was exaggerating about "doing all the housework". If I had ever talked that way about anyone helping at home when I was that age, my parents would seen red and the consequences would have been dire - way more dire than this. WTF? Does this girl think she is too good to do such menial chores? What an attitude!

So the father came home from work and spent a few hours working on her computer, and asked her to bring him a cup of coffee while he was doing it and she flips out? She's a "slave"? No wonder he was so mad.

To me this kid sounds like she has had it too easy, and is resisting parental attempts to push her into taking on more adult responsibilities and basically grow up.

The dad is pissed as hell in this video, but he's in control of himself, and his mention of the mother proves that they talked it over and decided on this step. This is not an impulsive act.

He could have beaten the laptop to death or run over it, but that would have been hard to film. As for selling it, first you'd have to wipe the hard drive and then reinstall the operating system, do all the updates and it would take a long, long time. He probably doesn't have that time.

There's hardly anything worse they could do to the kid than let her get set in her current mental attitude. That WOULD be abusive.
