A Highway Patrol Officer receives a call that a teenage boy is standing on a freeway ramp holding a sign. At the scene, it reads, “I skipped school today and my mom told me this will be my future.”
When questioned, he had been there for 45 minutes. Then the teen points across the street to his mother’s parked car. As they approach the car he states, “I can’t allow your son to do this, you both please be on your way.”
As he walks away he pauses, “Ma’am, off the record that was genius! May I keep the sign?” It now hangs in a California Highway Patrol kiosk office somewhere in northern California.
That is FANTASTIC! Definitely a mom move I would make if my kids ever decided to skip school. Thankfully (so far) that hasn’t been a worry. I definitely admire a mom willing to teach a hard lesson like that.
Go Mom! Thanks for sharing Pie!
Brilliant parenting:)
😀 Now why didn’t I think of that?!
I am soooooo doing that!
What a great idea! I wonder if the kid will ever skip school again?????
This really happend to a friend of mine’s brother-in-law that is a CHP officer last year. When she told me this story, I about died!
Didn’t you ever skip school?
Yes, but I never got caught! 🙂
