The Meanest Mom On the Planet

I want to add my voice to the throngs already praising self-proclaimed “meanest mom on the planet” Jane Hambleton for having the courage to be a true parent.  If you somehow missed this story, you can find it here.

It seems to me that a big part of being a great parent — or teacher — is simply being willing to step up and confront bad behavior rather than defending or ignoring it.
