like right now getting your kids to listen and really learn lessons when they've done something wrong can feel impossible one ohio father tried the long talks and emotional exchanges with his daughter they just didn't take so when her principal notified him she'd been involved in a bullying complaint he went to school and came up with a punishment that required some legwork neither of them would ever forget when matt cox's daughter came home from school on a friday afternoon she handed him a note from the administrators along with her note she guiltily explained she needed a ride on monday morning see kirsten was suspended from riding the bus for several days administrators doled out the punishment because ten-year-old kristen continued acting out on the daily bus route her crime was a heinous one according to administrators kristen was bullying her classmates during their commute to school unable to curb her aggression the school just outright banned her from the bus for a few days reading the suspension papers matt was disappointed in kristen's behavior though unfortunately he wasn't entirely surprised this marked the second time his daughter had faced the same punishment for the same infraction she was developing a pattern of bullying in his words bullying was unacceptable the reality that his child was the source of the problem made him angry yet determined to nip it in the bud matt had to come up with a powerful way to teach kristin a lesson the punishment needed to leave a lasting impression so he reasoned it should match the gravity of her mistake this is my small way of trying to stop it in my household he said so matt devised a plan and launched it into action monday morning arrived and keeping to their normal routine kristen got ready for school ate her breakfast and put on her backpack they walked out to the car and that's when matt broke the news instead of the typical parental lecture met with pouty facial exchanges in the rearview mirror matt climbed into the car and told kristen to start walking that december morning she would make the journey to school solely on her own two feet for the next three days kristen walked five miles to school matt wanted his daughter to think about the consequences of her actions every step would be a reminder of how her words had made other people feel and matt hoped she'd gain an appreciation for riding the bus feeling good about his hands-on parenting technique matt uploaded a video of kristen's punishment walk to his facebook account the video caused a lot of stir fairly quickly with many of matt's friends commenting and sharing it soon it had gone viral to very mixed reactions tons of parents praised matt's techniques cheering on his punishment as effective tough love they agreed matt had properly held kristin accountable and ensured her safety by trailing in the car behind her others were less impressed a large number of online spectators criticized matt's chosen method of discipline they pointed to the fact that it was only 36 degrees on the day of the big walk saying the punishment was overkill bordering on cruel others pointed out the act of filming kristen's walk and posting it online qualified as public humiliation ironically a form of bullying in itself this vein of shaming kids has caught on in the current age of viral stories leaving parents to wonder about the lasting emotional effects borrowing from past practices like the stocks judges across the country have participated in this recent uptick in public humiliation by including it in their sentencing orders usually it involves the guilty party wearing a sign that describes their misdeeds some people like matt have integrated the tactic into their discipline arsenal he absolutely disagreed with those dragging his strategy online in his opinion many parents don't take matters of bullying as serious as they should determined to rip the bullying problem out by the root he vowed that his children would face consequences for their actions he wouldn't lump their bad behaviors into a kids will be kids mentality given the surge in anti-bullying initiatives in schools across the u.s matt felt this issue qualified for memorable disciplinary action kristin is on the cusp of transitioning into middle school the age group most reported to struggle with bullying studies show that one in three children in the us experience bullying in their schools with 70 percent of students overall witnessing incidents of bullying in matt's mind he was doing his duty as a parent to combat what's been labeled as an epidemic in response to the negativity matt posted an update on kristen still has all her extremities intact is happy and healthy and seems to have a new outlook on bullying as well as a new appreciation for some of the simple things in life she used to take for granted kirsten admitted she regrets her actions and that her punishment did make her think things through noting how it makes her feel when people aren't nice to her so far she hasn't expressed any anger or embarrassment about her father's sharing her walk to school on social media in fact the 10 year old admitted she too has felt the negative effects of being bullied in school matt read comments on his video that detailed the experiences of others who had been bullied by all three of his children the truth is with the prevalence of technology kids have to worry about being targeted not just at school posting nearly anything on social media can prompt completely unwelcome comments so teens are coming up with creative and powerful ways to respond to their bullies when a video of teenage explorer jade hammester was posted online internet trolls couldn't help but leave sexist jokes in the comment section rather than let the haters get her down jade made them eat their words you might think only normal kids like kirsten cox face bullies on a regular basis but that's far from the truth australian 19 year old jade hamester was a prodigy and she still earned plenty of critics jade's dreams have always included travel but her version of travel doesn't involve luxury resorts tourist attractions or even tour guide led expeditions jade is more interested in pushing herself against whatever mother nature has to offer jade has been drawn to adventure since she was just six years old as her and her father journeyed to the top of australia's highest peak mount cosiosco jade was an ambitious girl from the get-go and that drive to see and change the world only increased as she grew i have been brought up in a very adventurous family jade said in an interview with jakarta travels the explorer magazine while i was a young girl growing up my dad was off climbing the seven summits and both my parents took me and my brother on little adventures every year at 12 years old jade completed the everest base camp trek an arduous hike at high altitudes that typically takes two weeks to finish i wanted to see what dad had climbed to the top of in 2011 jade said regarding her motive and though jade has always been inspired by her dear father she particularly looked up to women who followed their guts and defied the odds while in the midst of her journey to the everest base camp jade befriended two women whose accomplishments wowed her one of the women had once skied to the south pole alone and the other was the first woman to summit everest without supplemental oxygen but rather than simply applaud them their achievements inspired jade to embark on her own expedition according to jade's personal website in april 2016 she became the youngest person to ever ski to the north pole from anywhere outside the last degree at just 14 years old she was then recognized by the australian geographic society as 2016's young adventurer of the year national geographic documented her physically and mentally challenging journey to the north pole for its documentary jade's polar dream but even this wasn't enough to satisfy jade's need for something new and exciting because jade was kicking butt and taking names the little trailblazer gave a tedx talk in august 2016 which highlighted her belief that young girls should never be discouraged from chasing their dreams the world record breaker wanted to act as an example to girls around the world in her talk titled my journey to the north pole and beyond she asked what if the focus shifted from how we appear to the possibilities of what we can do this was just her intro as a young woman i live in a world where i'm constantly bombarded with messages to be less to eat less to wear less to be skinnier to shrink my ambitions to fit in to wait for my prince charming to come and save me or to avoid activities that are for boys she continued she voiced that the world's future would be much brighter if women decided to ignore these societal messages and refuse to play it safe using her accomplishments as proof of what's possible not everyone was on board when jade's talk was uploaded to youtube the video garnered many nasty comments that said make me a sandwich in case you haven't heard the blatantly sexist phrase it references the outdated idea that women belong in the kitchen though these comments and others like them were at first disheartening jade wasn't one to let internet trolls win in fact she was preparing for another adventure one that would capture the attention of kids everywhere in january 2018 jade hamester became the youngest person to complete the incredibly difficult polar hat trick which is a three-tiered feat that entails skiing around the north pole crossing greenland's largest ice cap and around the south pole throughout her 373 mile journey on skis while pulling a 220 pound sled she couldn't stop thinking of the ridiculous sandwich comments on her old tedx talk even considering bringing a literal sandwich to the south pole as a joke she needed to do something but the more jade thought on it the more she realized it was an epic way to respond to her ghastly internet trolls the camp we were staying at was less than a kilometer away from the actual pole so we were like let's just do it jade explained to cnn she posted a photo of herself standing tall at the very top or bottom in this case of the south pole on her social media profiles hysterically captioning it i made you a sandwich ham and cheese now ski 37 days and 600 kilometers to the south pole and you can eat it xx
