Tough love or child abuse?

I strongly disagree with this method of discipline. What happened to patience and compassion? As a parent myself, it pains me to see other parents do this and all of those stuff relative to this. It is always wise to discipline out of love, not of anger. No good result will come out of this. Sometimes children portray attention-seeking behaviour because they indeed lack attention! It's better for us parents to get to know our kids. A simple act of listening to what they have to say would be a good start. I hope we realize that children aren't an inconvenience but a blessing.

I don't think shaming a 10 year old kid would do any good at all. It will just create a vicious cycle continuing into the child's adulthood. You'll often find people with criminal background also having a history of being abused or neglected as a child.

Nitwit, if this happened in Oz, I know they have very strict laws against child abuse; even the spanking of children is not allowed. Isn't public shaming of a kid covered in their child abuse laws?

The kid needs help, not punishment. I can't imagine doing such things to my sons.

Yeah I know sir now the mum got charged for humiliating her son in public. thats considered as child abuse here but if her son is really like that, no stopping him from stealing, what can she really do? its very hard for the mum's side which i understand why she had to do it, its very hard to take your son anywhere when all he does is steal to every shop you go to.
