Augusta Township 4th grader forced to sit outside with sign explaining misbehavior

It's a strange way to lead into the 10 p.m. newscast, but we'd thought we'd share it anyway.

Fox 2 led its 10 p.m. newscast last night with the story of an Augusta Township school child who was being punished by his parents for talking back to his teacher at Childs Elementary School.

His teacher asked him to rewrite a piece that was accidentally deleted off the iPad Cameron Adkins was working on. He apparently got upset and back-talked the teacher, getting him sent home for the day.

His parents have made him sit in their front lawn with a sign that says "I don't want to behave at school."

Take a look at Fox 2's report below. What do you think of the punishment? Is it something you would do with your children?
