With his father standing behind him at the corner of Goodman and Hwy. 51 a young man was forced to stand with a sign that read "I like to smoke weed and get caught with it." The father said that he was not going to let this be just "a phase" he was going to nip it in the butt now.He also said that if this didn't work next time he would make his son mow every lawn in their neighborhood.

 Personally I wish I could have been in the area to stop and shake this mans hand. Here is someone that actually cares enough about his son to do something.

I saw it on the news that is what I am talking about a parent making their child responsible for their actions. I applaud this young man's father.

It is so good to see a father active in his son's life. I hope this young man realizes how blessed he is!
