Father teaches daughter a lesson about facebook...

[Honeycombe8]

283. I'm on the Dad's side. Child services? He's done nothing wrong.

Fear him? Clearly she doesn't. And he doesn't seem dangerous to me. Bullies hit people, not destroy laptops for punishment. (Maybe he should've cleaned out the hard drive & given it to charity, tho.) Public? The daughter is the one who made it public.

The kid sounds like a spoiled brat. She's also apparently in her teens, since her Dad suggested she get a job. She should get a job, earn some money, and start paying for her luxury items like laptops and phones. That teaches a kid the value of items.

This was not a mean guy. Maybe not your style of parenting. Clearly he was spittin' mad. Which he had a right to be.

I wouldn't have handled it in that way. The kid was venting to her friends, spouting off, and probably didn't mean half of what she said. But she posted it publicly, and parents are people, too. I'm on this guy's side. The girl should learn to be accountable for her words. Next time maybe she'll think twice before spouting off about someone publicly. If she'd spouted off about some bully at school, it could've meant physical harm to her.

Actions have consequences.
