A FATHER HAD PUNISHED HIS DAUGHTER, MADE HER SLEEP ON THE BACKYARD, AFTER SHE WAS DISRESPECTFUL AGAINST THEIR MAID
A father had shared on Reddit that he had punished his daughter and sent her to the backyard to sleep, as she was disrespectful against their housemaid.
He had intoduced his daughter and stated that she was not doing okay in terms of behaving, at house and school. “My M46 daughter (16) is a highschool junior. I noticed recently that she’s been behaving in a bad manner constantly commenting on other people’s looks, belongings, calling them stuff that isn’t cool and just being insensitive. It’s like she lost a filter or something because usually she’s polite but my wife suspected that our daughter’s sudden misbehavior occurred after she started hanging out with new girls from the school.”
With her wife, they had thought that her friends had changed her behaviour, as she was hanging out with kids that has no manners. “Basically the mean type and have picked on their behavior. I’ve sat with my daughter and had many discussions about how her behavior has been negatively affecting everyone around her. Our housemaid is the person most affected here and my daughter has chosen her to be her target for hair, clothes, “etiquette” criticism.”
Their housemaid had complained about their daughter, as she was talking disrespectfully towards her. “She has complained about our daughter calling her offensive names like filthy and gross for cleaning certain areas in our house. I took a stand and explicitly told my daughter I’d punish her if she ever said stuff like that to our housemaid again.”
Then gave another example of her disrespectful behaviour towards their housemaid. “Last week my daughter had a party to go to, earlier that day she called our housemaid “filthy” so I grounded her by not letting her go to the party. She threw a fit and called our housemaid a liar saying she never called her that. That was the end of it.”
But things changed when she tried to sabotage their housemaids job, as she had accused her with thievery, and put her phone in to her bag. “Days later my daughter came to me saying she couldn’t find her iPhone after looking everywhere. She asked me to call her number and I did. My wife and I were stunned to discover that the iphone was ringing inside our housemaid’s bag. I had an confrontation with her immediately and she denied and cried saying she never touched the phone nor had any idea how it got there. I noticed my daughter calling her theif repeatedly so I told her to stop and go to her room.”
The father had checked the cameras, and saw that his daughter had put her phone into the bag of their housemaid. ” I checked the indoor camera before continuing the argument and saw my daughter place her iphone inside our housemaid’s bag, I was livid. I apologized to the housemaid and gave her the rest of the day off. I then showed the video to my daughter and she was absolutely speechless. I said what she did was immoral and straight up offensive to tamper with that poor woman’s livelihood over a petty party she couldn’t go to.”
He then proceeded with the punishment, and asked for advice. “I told her she was grounded and will have to spend the night in the backyard (she is a germaphobe) but she cried begging me to not make her sleep with the dirt, insects and hot temp. I refused to discuss it or I’d make it 2 nights. My wife said I should go easy on her but I said calling people filthy and accusing them of stealing wasn’t ok in fact it was the absolute worst, I then went through with my punishment.”
