Michigan Mother Makes Suspended Son Pick Up Roadside Trash

His mother, Veronica Griffin, wouldn’t let him stay home and wanted to teach him a lesson. So she had the 15-year-old wear a sign on his back that read, “I made a bad choice in school now I’m living with it.”

“He has to know when his actions are not appropriate that there could be consequences to those actions and those consequences could be humiliating,” Veronica told WOOD-TV Friday.

Bravo! Veronica Griffin is my hero! 

Walk the talk girl!  No idle threats with that woman!

Father, I ask you to bless my friends reading this right now.
I am asking You to minister to their spirit at this very moment.
Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy.
Where there is self doubting, release a renewed confidence in
Your ability to work through them. Where there is tiredness, or exhaustion,
I ask You to give them understanding, patience,
and strength as they learn submission to your leading.
Where there is spiritual stagnation, I ask You to renew them by revealing
Your nearness, and by drawing them into greater intimacy with You.
Where there is fear, reveal Your love, and release to them Your courage.
Where there is a sin blocking them, reveal it,
and break its hold over my friend’s life.
Bless their finances, give them greater vision,
and raise up leaders and friends to support and encourage them.
Give each of them discernment to recognize the evil forces around them,
and reveal to them the power they have in You to defeat it.
I ask You to do these things in Jesus’ name.
