There is no question that drug use amongst teens is a problem, big problem in America. One father took an usual approach.
Dad Makes Son Wear Sign for Using Drugs from SFGate.com reports that a father made his son wear a sign that read, "I abused and sold drugs."
Why, because his son abused and sold drugs and his Dad wanted to send him a message.
"I'm not out here doing this to humiliate my son," the father told WATE-TV as the teenager walked up and down the sidewalk Wednesday in front of Cedar Bluff Middle School."I'm doing this because I love him," he said. "We do have an extreme drug problem in America, and maybe it's time for extreme measures that parents need to take to monitor this problem that we have."
What is also pretty crazy is that the father learned of his son's drug use through reading his son's MySpace page!
I guess it could have been worse. His dad could have made him ride this bicycle to school every day.
;-) Thanks Judah for the YouTube video.

Wow... I so want one of the bike. :)
Really, that wasn't nearly harsh enough just making him wear the shirt. Breaking the law = wear a shirt touting it? That's not that much of a punishment.
