People Suck Mother of the Year Award

I've been enjoying the first few days of Eggnog season and watching the Red Sox beat up on the Tampa Bay Rays, so things haven't been riling up ol' RoadRage. That is, until I went online yesterday to find the latest news.

On top of having to deal with the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, the financial crisis, and gas prices not dropping nearly as much as they should be, we still have to deal with morons like 31-year-old Shawna Foster out of Victorville, CA -- winner of RoadRage's 2008 Mother of the Year Award. Congratulations Shawna, for showing mothers how to be a complete imbecile.

Apparently, Shawna's daughter told her mom she was getting verbally abused by a classmate, so to teach her daughter a lesson on how to stand up for herself, she brought her to a local park to fight this name-calling girl. Brilliant!

The problem for Shawna is that her daughter was easily pummeled by her adversary, as you can see in this video. And keep watching ... instead of just breaking up the fight, mom decides to join in on the action, forcefully pulling (er, uh, yanking) the other girl by the hair off her daughter. Then to top it off, she hauls off and smacks her right across the face.

Shawna is being charged with corporal punishment of a minor. Is that justice? How should a dumb ass like this be treated? How would you feel if a 31-year-old mammoth slapped your girl across the face. Now, RoadRage is never one to call for the physical beating of a lady, but maybe the term, "That's no lady!" applies here, and someone should pound on this woman to knock some sense in to her.

While they determine what's going to happen to her, she can enjoy her People Suck Award and show it off to all her buddies at the local bar, as she regales them with tales of her undisputed fighting title against the Victorville 12-year-old division.

What a stupid person.

But what the hell do hockey mom's have to do with it?...Over-analytical, far-left psychologist taking a cheap shot. (refer to video)

Nothing gets me more than stupid people with degrees used as "experts".

If the one girl had attacked the other girl unprovoked, I would have more sympathy for the mom. It would be hard to watch your child take a beating like that, and I can see where it would make you angry.

But the fact that she drove her kid to the fight and actually encouraged it removes that sympathy. Even if the kid was talking smack about her daughter she shouldn't encourage her kid to fight. When did violence become the measure of first resort to every supposed insult?

Here's an idea: parents, teach your kids to be nice human beings and to be nice to others. You'll not only make the world a better place. You'll help get Jerry Springer off the air.

If I knew how to put a video up, I would put the one up of Mike and Carole Brady trying to reason with the bully that picked on Peter and Cindy.
Try to reason then kick their ass!!! Leave it up to the kids until it goes to far, then the parents can get involved. Like grown ups, not mentally teenaged paernts!
