Bullying is an issue abhorred all over the world, but it’s a problem that’s unfortunately ingrained in society.
It’s important to teach children from the earliest of ages that bullying is unacceptable in any form, and it’s a lesson most parents and teachers strive to hammer home.
However, it’s virtually impossible to root it out entirely, so what to do when a child is found to be bullying another? Well, one Texan mom had a rather controversial method of punishing her son after hearing how he’d called other kids in his class “idiots” and “stupid”. The woman, known only as Star, has sent shockwaves around the internet with her choice of admonishment.

Well, one Texan mom had a rather controversial method of punishing her son after hearing how he’d called other kids in his class “idiots” and “stupid”. The woman, known only as Star, has sent shockwaves around the internet with her choice of admonishment.
As per British newspaper The Daily Star, the mom wanted to stamp out her son’s behavior and, having grown tired of his antics, conjured her own form of rebuke.
She told ABC13 that she was an “old-school parent” who believes in strong morals.
Instead of simply telling him off, or even ordering him to deliver an apology to the affected kids, Star opted to dress her son in a t-shirt that read “I AM A BULLY”. She then took photos of him before school and uploaded it to Facebook so that everyone could see.
