Thanks Billy very interesting... Roy

Very sad.... I feel sorry for his daughter.

I liked this comment on the webpage response to the video...

"Respect is earned and it is picked up by kids whose parents model it for them.

Congrats, Dad. Your daughter will probably never do something that immature again. But you just lost her heart and any chance that she will ever truly respect you. You just threw away, because of your ego, any chance at a relationship with your daughter. Good job."

so true...

Im making the best of this. I showed it to my 12 year old, and said this is what I will do to "Your" stuff if you act that way.

I like the start but he lost it along the way .
I expect he will never get her back .

I saw this when my 13 year old posted this on FB! She thought it was funny, I just commented right on back and said "you know I can do this too, I have the guns!" Haha, she didn't look happy. She has done the dishes for a few days now without complaint though.
As for posting that on her wall, well, shame on you Dad. Public humiliation of your daughter is awful. I get the point he was trying to make, but let's hope his daughter can forgive him now that it's viral.

Check his FB page Tommy Jordan....southern girls are tougher than you might believe. He has turned down media interviews and his own reality show. He is a solid dude.
FWIW I raised 3 girls....

I see no point in using public humiliation as a parenting skill.

That's cause it's not a skill at all.
Telling everybody your kid disappoints you is so wrong.
There is a difference between a person disappointing and the actions of that person which are disappointing. I sure hope for the dad that he was meaning the actions and his hormone full teenager girl disappointed him.
The dad was so mad he stuttered. It might have been better to sleep on it a bit.

My actions have disappointed my dad a couple times when growing up under his roof. He has told me in private why he was disappointed and how we could fix the issue together. He never ever humiliated me (not in public, not in private). He has however disciplined me in public, but it was in a loving way, not out of anger.

exactly
15 year old girls are young women and need to be treated with respect...

If you wait 15 years for your first attempt at parenting....
