That's my hometown!
I have to say that I fully support what this mother is doing. Some may criticize, but here's something -- at least she's being a parent!
Too often, a parent with a hellion child will dismiss bad behavior and bad grades trying to assign blame to everyone except for their darling child. This works everywhere, and in every respect except for to teach the kid what the real world is like.
If this lesson gets through to this little girl, she may very well turn her life around. She's young and can afford to make mistakes. In a few years, however, when she's done with highschool, her life decisions will have very real consequences that mommy can no longer shield her from.
To the mother -- well done.
