A Windsor mother is defending her technique to get her 12-year-old son to stop bullying.
Earlier this week, Samantha Fejko's son came home from school telling her he was in trouble again for bullying.
She told AM800's The Morning Drive this has happened numerous times before and nothing she has tried so far to curb the behaviour has helped.
"I went through every parenting tactic you can; took things away, electronics, grounding, chores anything I can think of and it really wasn't sinking in," she said.
This time, she and the boy's uncle had him carry a sign on Tecumseh Rd and Princess so he could understand how it feels to be the victim.
The sign read "I like to bully handicap kids."
Fejko says most of the people driving by showed support for the move.
"Even police officers drove by and gave his uncle the thumbs up and said good job."
She says her son told her afterwards, it felt bad to him to carry the sign.
"I looked at him and I said, you know that's how those people feel when you make fun of them and he kind of went, yeah I get it."
