2. Sorry I don't get it
It works fine for me. I tried to load it into photobucket but that site wouldn't take it.

It is a picture of a kid standing on the street, holding a sign that says 'I am 13 years old. I STEAL. I want to go to prison to be with Daddy.' A woman (his mom?) is sitting in a chair next to him with a cold drink in her hand.

I just tried it again.

I did open the pic up in a new window before I copied the url.

10. With a Cold Drink and a Cold Look!
She is not happy. I hope the kid one day realizes how lucky he is to have a parent who expects better of him than whatever fool thing he's been playing at.

8. I sort of think that her willingness
to put herself through the humiliation will have a far longer lasting effect on him than the punishment itself. I remember when I was 13 my mom crying or being disappointed was a lot tougher to deal with than a grounding or a spanking...

11. I agree
Sometimes public humiliation is most appropriate.
