An education is non negotiable. This kid should be grateful to have someone who loves him so much that she would go out on a limb for him. You know that there will be many who will trash her for making him stand on the corner.
A Tampa mom is so frustrated with her son’s grades, she is making him wear a sign on a street corner to tell everyone about them.
Ronda Holder’s 15-year-old son James is standing on the corner at 22nd Street and Hillsborough Avenue, wearing a sign that says: “I did four questions on my FCAT and said I wasn’t going to do it…GPA 1.22…honk if I need education.”
Bad grades land teen on street corner.

He’s going to get it. It may take him awhile, but he will get it eventually.
The parent is right, there is no shame to making F’s and D’s in school anymore. Atleast that kid knows that his mother is ashamed of him having the where withall and wasting it. If that kid loves his mama, he is going to be trying a bit harder to do better.
