Last Sunday, the seven year-old boy in this video took his parents’ car and got chased by police for several miles before driving himself back home. Why did he do it? Because he didn’t want to go to church. Thankfully, no one was hurt.
Yea, I had just told my wife that 4 days grounding seems out of scale (light). And agreed on the glamorizing foolishness. 7 years old and all, seems, uh, like you’re rewarding.

Yeah, so in punishing the kid they take him to New York and put him on the Today show (or whatever show it was).
Way to punish the kid and also teach every other kid that age that stealing the car gets them on national television.

Nathan,there were definitely some conflicting messages there. Also, grounding the kid for four days wouldn’t do it in my house.
