Just how far is too far when it comes to teaching your kids a lesson?
A mom in Lehigh Acres, Florida fed up with her son playing with matches had a sheriff's deputy handcuff him and put him in the back of a patrol car to teach him a lesson.
The mom stands by her decision saying "If more parents did what I did we wouldn't have the crime we have now."
But a witness to the event thought it was too much. She watched as the sheriff handcuffed the little boy and took a picture as she pumped gas at a 7-Eleven.
"That's not a way to treat a child, that's not a way to teach a lesson to a little boy,” said the witness. "The only thing why I didn't go up to a cop and say what the heck are you doing is because I would have gone to jail."
The Lee County Sheriff's Office said the deputy did not follow protocol and said it wouldn't happen again.
So what do you guys think, was the mom out of line or was this good parenting?
