Swearing is so bad in one Boston suburb that the police chief wants to fine people $20 for swearing in public. Sort of a community swear jar of sorts.

Another example of parenting through public humiliation: A parent was sick of her daughter acting out, so she replaced her Facebook profile picture with a photo of her with an “X” superimposed over her mouth and the caption, “I do not know how to keep my (mouth shut)… I am not longer allowed on Facebook or my phone. Please ask why, my mom says I have to answer everyone that asks.” To get the picture taken down she had to send an individual response to everyone who asked explaining what she did and what she learned from the whole experience. (I’ll bet the first thing she learned was to change her Facebook password to something her mom doesn’t know)
