I think this man went too far. You don't do this to your own child. An Indiana dad named Gary Mills shared a video of his teenage daughter on Facebook that show her wearing a cardboard sign that read,
"My name is Abby Mills & I am a liar & a theif! I’ve stolen from my parents, brothers & sister. Aunts & uncles. I even stole my 9-yr-old cousin’s Christmas presents.”
In the video that has since gone viral, the dad, who is filming, can be heard asking people to share the video 'so everybody in the world will know my daughter's a thief and I'm sick and tired of it.". Many have condemned the video but some are hailing the dad. What do you guys think? Did he go too far?
Lol
ReplyDeletein otherwords, he can do it to someone else's child?
ReplyDeleteThis is stupid....I wish I can just catch that man..
ReplyDeleteLol... he went too far.. there are better ways to correct her than this public disgrace,
ReplyDeleteHe kinda went 2 far tho
ReplyDeleteAbsolute nonsense it doesn't change anything...the child will resent her father fir ever.
ReplyDeleteLol! He jst taught her a lesson. Although I think he went too far
ReplyDeleteHaba! Too far.
Delete*Miss Official
Dat's not gud,instead he shld find a way to help d grl out...anyway he is helping her to becm a celeb lolz I jst pray she won't commit suicide
ReplyDeleteThat's extreme.
ReplyDeleteSeriously I'm against this extreme form of punishment - this will do a lot of damage to her
DeleteThis is bad.Her father went too far.
ReplyDeleteThat's totally uncalled for.
ReplyDeleteno run comot for house? Shuu? Anyways my dad is too polished, educated n enlightened to even think of such. Sorry nne! Ur papa needs to be caged wit a crocodile. Mtchew!
ReplyDeleteI'm in full support. The dad needed to take drastic action regarding his wayward daughter, and so he did. Sure her feelings will be hurt but its tough love, she'll learn her lesson now.
ReplyDeleteSee this fool
Deletehe's done well.. i'm more than positive the dad has tried his best to change her but she's deliberately refused, i hope she changes after this humiliation on both herself and family..
ReplyDeleteWe the family is asking for nothing but justice for our late father. He was 72 and peaceful, we did nothing to warrant taking his life with 6 bullets. We call on the federal government to please come to our aid, we haven't been able to even see our mourning mothers because our lives are also threaten and we are on the run. For our dear lives.
ReplyDeleteNo this is bad, he should have look for others ways to punish his child not this way nah.
ReplyDeleteNo this is bad, he should have look for others ways to punish his child not this way nah.
ReplyDeleteIt's not fair....so sad!

ReplyDeleteI ain't saying this is good but Mehn some children can be something else, imagine stealing from a nine year old kid
ReplyDeleteAm sure he as been warning the girl...but this too much
ReplyDeletePls,d word is Has not as..
DeleteHe's a mad man if he can't find another "beautiful" way to stop her fro stealing. No sane parent does that.
ReplyDeleteif dat will make her stop its ok
ReplyDeleteIn as much as its obvious the man has had enough, dis is not the way to go about it as it would only make the girl lose her self confidence. Linda take note!Awwwww, may his soul rest in peace. Linda take note!

ReplyDeleteMadness...attention seekers
ReplyDeleteNawaa ooooo
ReplyDeleteHe is a very big fool! Is dis d only measure 2 punish a kid! He has lost it & he has failed as a father in his duties!
ReplyDeleteU just kill a Child's self esteem.....
He did well, if such steps weren't taken. She might get worse!!! Best dad ever!!! Nice one.
ReplyDeleteLet your father do that to you when u thief next time...Olodo
Delete@ Debby, I c ua Jesus! Lyk u dnt commit crimes or u don't sin?? If God/ ur peeps treat u in same manner, how wld u feel? ? Even Jesus Himself 4gave sinners!
DeleteSo wrong...why humiliate her like this?
ReplyDeleteAbeg he did very very well
ReplyDeleteAbeg he did very very well
ReplyDeleteWicked dady he really went too far
ReplyDeleteNo he didn't.He must have kept it under wraps for long enough.A child that will not allow her parents sleep,she took will not blink!
ReplyDeleteI think he went too far in tryin to punish her, there are other ways.
ReplyDeleteThe man must be crazy for such public disgrace.
ReplyDeleteHe went too far. He's also shamin himself, cos he's d fada of a thief
ReplyDeleteSo gross! What kind of father does this???
ReplyDeleteThe father is clearly not thinking of the future of the child and the implications of his action. While the biblical reference that you should not spare the rod is there, it doesn't however means that you should disgrace and "dishuman" your child that way..... Its wrong no matter what!!!
ReplyDeleteBest dad! She would stop stealing after this shame
ReplyDeleteAlways fast 2 judge odas! Urs might nt b stealing but u sure ve flaws/ sins. Wld it b just 4 u to receive same treatment wen u sin??
DeleteThis totally wrong it's actually an abuse regardless of what the kid did.
ReplyDeleteHow on earth will someone even think of commending dis man? U shld never air ur dirty laundry.... ur family is ur family, ask him, did his parent tell d whole world when he was still bed-wetting?
ReplyDeleteHe went too far abeg
ReplyDeleteToo bad. Her dad has a wicked heart o
ReplyDeleteD father s a coward, u r a disgrace 2 fatherhood. He jst disgraced himself tinkin he disgraced his daughter.
ReplyDeleteHe went too far abegy! If she commits suicide tmrw now, we knw who triggered it!
ReplyDeleteJeeeez if na me eh I 4 literally die from shaaaame
ReplyDeleteIf d girl shld commit suicide bcos of dis God will neva 4give him
ReplyDeleteLol rubbish oyibo ppl they can't even spell thief well smh sometimes I wonder if they are really better than us (Africans) in their English language
ReplyDeleteHe went too far.haba!!!its so unfair even fr future purpose dats aw som young champ end up commitn suicide and if ds one does dat its her fada dat killed her..... foolish man
ReplyDeleteDis is so unfair.
ReplyDeleteToooo bad
ReplyDeleteToo far
ReplyDeleteIt's good oh, cos if it was in Nigeria she would have gotten a good spanking bbut it u beat her there she can report you and you can be arrested!!
ReplyDeleteNo he didn't. He will set her straight for life even if she hates him.
ReplyDeleteGo dad. God bless you
So Linda seriously, are you implying that he cannot do this to his own child but he can do to other people's. Well this isn't a good way to correct a child there are better ways to correct. But Linda you go sabi do this kind thing to other people kids from the way you sounded o...Lol
ReplyDeleteOh no!! Dis is certainly not how 2 discipline a child....mbanu!
ReplyDeleteYes! Pls way too far!
ReplyDeleteThe dad went to far
ReplyDeleteHe didn't go too far
ReplyDeleteThat's not fair na
ReplyDeleteYes....he went too far.Not the best way.
ReplyDeleteThey need to help her and let her know is not a good habit
He went too far, that girl could commit suicide out of shame.
ReplyDeleteWrong in every way
ReplyDeleteDa Fuck?
ReplyDeleteIf we hear say this girl commit suicide tomorrow, may anyone nor blame devil...I think the parents went too far.
ReplyDeleteMy dear Linda, it's not easy to raise a teenager. You think the dad hasn't tried everything in the world? Until you hear the full gist, that's the only option left for the dad.
ReplyDeleteSpare the rod & the child would rot. I like his move. I'm sure he's so so damn tired of it.
ReplyDeleteWent too far. This is not the right way to correct a child. Within the family mit be fine but to the world is totally wrong. It wud certainly affect her life
ReplyDeleteI think he was right, no one ever said there is a rule book on parenting and clearly he must have tried the conventional way of punishing her. We've all been teenagers before and know for a fact that shame goes a long way. Remember those kids in school that their parents come and flog infront of the rest of us and they get good due to shame why is this any different Linda? Her skin colour?
ReplyDeleteIf nigerian parents can flog their child infront of their peers in school and it's okay, if her going to jail and going through a trial is okay to 'reform' her, why is this wrong? I think it's good, that will teach her never to steal again. Little klepto!
ReplyDeleteBy all standards, this man went went too far. Granted that d poor girl commited all the alleged crimes, d father has no grounds, moral or otherwise, to virtually attempt to destroy the future(life) of his own daughter. More than anything, she needs more prayers and counselling. Definitely, not internet-wide humiliation. Or she might degenerate and resort to worse crimes. May eventually kill her father!
ReplyDeleteHe's a stupid father who doesn't know how to correct his child in love.
ReplyDeleteWe don't choose our relatives,otherwise dis poor little girl wud never have gone anywhere near the barbarian she calls her father. God will punish him 4 dis scale of humiliation he's put upon this young lady, it takes a thief to give birth to one. Anuofia idiot moronic monster of a mad man!
ReplyDeleteNo he didn't. It was habitual and you do what you can to try to save your child.
ReplyDeleteWell to some extent if it's gon change her den yes! Wen I was in high sch ma biology Teacher does Dis to students,dey'll ave to walk around sch wif d cardboard...somtimes its dier parents dat reports dem!
ReplyDeleteBuh all dese oyinbo children dat will b committing suicide now!

ReplyDeleteBuh all dese oyinbo children dat will b committing suicide now!
Yes cos it will not only affect d girl but d family and d generation
ReplyDeleteHe did the right thing, if he had done nothing at this early stage, the child might grow up to become worse...Linda when you give birth to ur own child,whenever she doesn't does bad thing keep covering it up until she disgrace u publicly..
ReplyDeleteWay too far. There other measures to make her learn not this way.
ReplyDeleteWhat is my business with them. Asking me my opinion, are u kidding?
ReplyDeleteARE YOU LOOKING FOR A SUGAR MUMMY OR DADDY PLEASE CALL THIS LINE 09050085168 PLEASE BE MATURED>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
ReplyDeleteGive ur life 2 Christ!!!
DeleteIn a country where you cant beat, you have to use all other available options. He is maybe tired and has no other options.
ReplyDeleteNa lesson .. I hope he doesn't get into trouble
ReplyDeleteFuck dat Stupid Father very much.
ReplyDeleteShe needs to learn yo spell "thief" too
ReplyDeleteSome dads tho
ReplyDeleteThat wasn't called for in public
ReplyDeleteTotally unnecessary biko!
ReplyDeleteStupid dad. Maybe she took after you.
ReplyDeleteNo he did not. Public Shaming is a last resort when the behavior becomes pervasive. Why would she steal a 9 year old's presents?

He really went too far, but it seems the girl has refused to show repentance, na all these coconut head type of children, so the dad had no better option than this. So as the kill her bad habits
ReplyDeleteExtremely too far. Its d definition of love anger.
ReplyDeleteLinda this is well deserved. The people going about killing, stealing, bombing...are they not people's children? This world is now something else. The earlier you start to set your kids straight the better. If they have the mind to steal at this age, then they should have the mind to suffer the consequences. Yaba the man done tire, is it until he is killed?
ReplyDeleteKilling,stealing & bombing u said yh? Ow abt fornication, adultery, malice, envy, lying, abortion, bribery, gossipn etc? Wot makes u feel u re better? Coz u ve nt bn disgraced by God/ ur peeps? Even Jesus 4gave sinners so who re we 2 judge? ?
DeleteShe is cute to be a thief
ReplyDeleteDats too bad! He. Went so far.
ReplyDeleteOyinbo pikin ,she would soon commit Sucide because her school mates humiliated her .
ReplyDeleteThe man can kill. What has he done to help. Her out of that impulsive condition.
ReplyDeleteHe has gone too far...although he was trying to teach her a lesson...he could have just asked her to work around the neighborhood with the board.well mayb the man has tried a lot of stuffs before he considered doing this to her
ReplyDeleteHe has gone to far,to to bad
ReplyDeleteTo to bad
ReplyDeleteNawao he would have used other means na, that's why Nigerian parents are good, he would have used prayers or other means to make her pay this is not good atall. Dis might affect the girl socially and otherwise even getting a husband might become a problem, who wants to marry a thief. I don't support.
ReplyDeleteThat vuvuzela P guy
Ok
ReplyDeleteMuch as I condemn it. He who wears the shoes 👞 know where it pinches.
ReplyDeletetoo bad..................
ReplyDeleteHe went too far
ReplyDeleteThis is not necessary because many youths in America do the same and why call her out like that? These same idiots will laugh at her. This could ruin her future.
ReplyDeleteits not funny at all
ReplyDeleteGod is a Good God, train up a child in the way she should go and when she is old she wont depart from it, now i know how you have been train her up, correction should be in defaming ones personality two wrongs wont make a right.
ReplyDeleteNow tomorrow, we will hear he was stabbed by his teenage daughter...don't they think? this is cruelty and it won't change her for good
ReplyDeletevery bad
ReplyDeletestupidity
ReplyDeleteThat girl can become suicidal in the near future.. Hope he'll remember causing it..
ReplyDeleteDats foolishness,stupid,uncalled for
ReplyDeleteIt's on fear to her.
ReplyDeleteWalahi is too bad..what type of disgrace is that
ReplyDeleteI support her father she won't do such nest time
ReplyDeleteThis is the type of thing that leads white people to commit suicide. He should have considered having the girl commuted and treated for kleptomancy or something
ReplyDeleteThis is absurd! R u sure d man is the real father? Even if, he went too far filming such a video n postin on d internet and even encouragin pple To share it.
ReplyDeleteHis stupid and he went too far
ReplyDeleteLib freak
Judging from the outside, I'd say he went too far but you can't tell for sure what prompted the father to take such actions and what the girl has done
ReplyDeletehttp://www.dobzifingers.com/?m=1
That's just too much abeg. I pray she doesn't contemplate suicide.
ReplyDeleteHe went too far, its going to tamper with the girls emotions,. Lets pray she doesnt turn into a real thief after this
ReplyDeleteVery wrong. Yes, he went too far!
ReplyDelete❤❤❤ THE PROPHETESS ❤ ❤ ❤
At all, going to far is stealing every1's tins including ur 9 yr old cousins present. If this helps her stop then it well worth. No one will hold it against her for the rest of her life, trust me lol. I think u shud b happy it's just dis and not a mugshot

ReplyDeleteAwww. He should have taken her to rehab. This will definitely follow her forever
ReplyDeleteCommon on! Dis is so wrong and bad for d dad is doing worse than d daughter. Dis wil kill her self esteem and wil definitely hav a negative long term effects on her.
ReplyDeleteThat is the way the society was, when I was young and it was a descent one.
ReplyDeletehe went too far shaming her like this cannot stop her from stealing and lying it can only make her worse off there are better way of correcting a child a teenager for that matter
ReplyDeletei don't think he went too far! but come on, this girl is too beautiful to steal.
ReplyDeleteShe will never steal again...Case closed
ReplyDeleteShe will never steal again..Lesson learned, case closed
ReplyDeleteHe didn't go far. Since you can't flog kids in America, they have to device means of dealing with them
ReplyDeleteThis is appalling and out rightly wrong. Sounds like a joke taken too far. I hope she doesn't become rebellious and vindictive in future. He should have sought for help and taken her for counseling...
ReplyDeleteI can only see a pretty gal...
ReplyDeleteWell he kinda went 2far shaa..but not very far.
This is wrong and appalling. It's like a joke taken too far. He should have sought help and taken her for counseling. Just hope she doesn't become withdrawn, rebellious or vindictive in the future...
ReplyDeleteBy the time she takes a knife and kills the whole family he will know how far he has gone....theyre all deranged white people both father and daughter
ReplyDeleteOnly people in her vicinity will know/remember her. I'm sure if i bump into her i won't remember her face. It's just one of the many viral videos on the internet, people will move on in a couple of days
ReplyDeleteLolss.....this girl must hav embarrassed in public many.....who knows how long hav been trying 2 change her ANINI life style....guess he is just pissed and disappointed .....
ReplyDeleteYes he definitely went too far - for one, he doesnt know how to spell!
ReplyDeleteWhite kids no dey hear word! He did well
ReplyDeletestupid dad
ReplyDeleteAt least they should spell "thief" well. Iranu
ReplyDeleteOnly in indian will u hear of such act..
ReplyDeleteWhat is your business or mine?
ReplyDeletewww.iblogwithgrace.blogspot.com
If he does not shame her now that she is young, and can change, she will bring the shame ultimately to the entire family, and perhaps her city. In those days she would have been exiled. In Saudi Arabia she would have lost her limb. It is up to her to feel remorse and repent. The parents love her and will take her back. If the entire family got despondent why should we blame the father?
ReplyDeleteNawa oo. It's too much naa. On Facebook?
ReplyDeleteIf i am d daughter i will refuse to wear it over my neck. If he beats me, i will call the corps. Abeg he went too far. What if the girls changes and becomes born again in future, there will be nobody to marry her because the stigma will still be there. Such a girl needs church and counselling because she is not an adult. Maybe she is even a niphomaniac which is a medical and phychological condition. At least she only steals from her family members. Stmchew
ReplyDeleteThief is misspelled
ReplyDeleteThis is the most stupid father I have ever seen. He should wear his own post with inscription '' I failed to raise my kid right'' Probably the girl took after her dad, this is a shameful disgrace to him and his family
ReplyDeleteHe went too far....
ReplyDeletesome of the comments are ill judged. I think he did what he had to do and what he felt was appropriate. for him to come to this level of shame he has clearly had enough. How do we know if this girl has not brought so much shame to her family from her theiving ways? and the comment about no one will marry her because of the video, really?!!! there are worse people out there that are married, so your argument is utterly illogical.
ReplyDeleteI don't agree with his action but I also have not walked in his shoes as the father of a theif. If she commits armed robbery tomorrow, you all be be the first to shout oyibo people don't discipline their children, now he has and we are still complaining.
Nigerians...I just can't.
He went too far
