Be Glad You Aren't These Parentsby Michele Cheplic | More from this Blogger 27 Mar 2009 11:02 AM What would you do if you learned that your 11-year-old son had been suspended from school? Would you: A. Ground him for life B. Ship him off to military school C. Punch his principal for what you consider to be an unfair punishment If you answered "C," then you might want to reconsider after hearing what happened to a Rhode Island mom after she went the same route. According to reports, 30-year-old Aleyda Uceta allegedly punched and bit her son's school principal after she was told the boy was being suspended. No kidding. Police say Uceta attacked the principal of Roger Williams Middle School. According to officers, the mom punched the principal in the face, and then bit his left arm after he told her that her son would be suspended for three days for refusing to go to a room for misbehaving students. Hmm... Wonder where he got that defiant streak? Making matters worse for the angry mom are reports that claim Uceta also bit an officer trying to arrest her at the school. Uceta has been charged with assault on school officials, assault on police officers and resisting arrest. But, Uceta isn't the only mother waiting for her day in court. Police in New Hampshire say they also arrested a mom who made a very bad decision last week. According to reports, a Massachusetts woman drove to Salem, New Hampshire to shoplift, but that's only half of the disturbing tale. Police say not only did the woman try to steal $765 worth of merchandise from Macy's she also used her 3-year-old daughter as a decoy. The 30-year-old mom allegedly hid her stash in a stroller and had her little girl push it out of the store. Police say astute Macy's employees saw what the woman was doing and called security before the hot-handed mom could leave the mall. Officers arrested the woman, who was released on $1,000 bail. The girl was released to her father. No word on whether the she will ever be allowed to go shopping with mommy again.

As a result, one of the ladies I worked with (who is a mom) would kneel down to the child's level and start talking to the child, while scanning the contents of the stroller for product. Moms just thought she was being friendly, but she was really preventing shoplifting! :) pinball9818 (101) 29 Mar 2009 12:20 AMPut both the mothers in jail. Assault on a principal should be treated with the sternest of sentences. pinball9818 (101) 29 Mar 2009 12:21 AMAnd you forgot answer D: Whip the child's butt. Yeah, I said it.  Michele Cheplic |
