I'm not a parent, but I am an adult. I understand his reaction to his daughter's disrespect but I think he should have taken time to cool off, not reacted thusly (and so publicly). I myself was kicked out of my house at fourteen for things I had written in my private, paper journal (which I kept buried in my sock drawer; it was found because it was looked for, not stumbled upon). so i feel for the daughter. but facebook is more public than a journal buried in a sock drawer…it's a different world, but both parents needed to think things through more thoroughly before reacting as such.
