Make that negro sleep on the floor with just a blanket. Have him wear the same outfit everyday. Only let him eat bland oatmeal and veggies. He might rethink his attitude.

that reminds me of when I was younger and acted up, EVERYTHING was taken away. it was called 'square 1'.... in my room, i just had a bed and a couple blankets. my meals were served in my room. i had 15min to shower. i was not allowed to pick out my clothes, it was chosen for me. i had to write on certain topics, like my behavior. or do extra hw that was so graciously asked for by my mother from my teachers. i had to earn everything back.

Oh and no, there isn't any family he can be sent to and he does have a dad but he really isn't much of one. Even though they live in the same house.....

Girl! I have been there. My foster mom was not playing...she was not about that "let kids talk crazy and run my house" life. Came home one day, door was taken off my room. Queen bed was replaced with a baby twin with a sheet and a blanket. Everything was GONE. Bet you I learned.

i had a door though. but it was locked on the outside and i couldn't get out. unless i was let out by her

Oh see my foster mom couldn't do that because it would have been against the law. But she knew me well enough to know that the lack of privacy would get to me way more.

She would also make me get in bed with the lights off as early as possible...if I was done with chores and homework at 7pm then that was my bed time.

Sometimes you have to get crazy on these children.
