As a teenager it doesn\u2019t get more embarrassing than having to hang out with your parents.<\/p>\n
I remember the days of walking a few paces behind my parents if we were out in public as if there was something wrong with them.<\/p>\n
So when a Texas dad found out that his 17-year-old son was misbehaving at school, it got him thinking about the worse punishment he could dish out.<\/p>\n
He considered taking his cell phone away or grounding him but then had an ingenious idea that parents all over the world are congratulating him on.<\/p>\n
The teacher had on several occasions told the family that their teenage son Brad talked too much during lessons.<\/p>\n
So his dad Bradley decided to give his talkative son an ultimatum.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor some reason I said, \u2018Hey, if we get another call I\u2019m going to show up in school and sit beside you in class,\u2019\u201d Dad Brad said, according to Buzzfeed..<\/p>\n
His son didn\u2019t think he was serious and carried on disrupting his physics class continuing to disturb the teacher and pupils.<\/p>\n
But when Dad Brad received yet another call about his son\u2019s disruptive behavior it was time to stick to his word.<\/p>\n
\u2018I didn\u2019t even notice him\u2019
\nIt wasn\u2019t something dad Brad wanted to do but he had to shock his son into behaving.<\/p>\n
\u201cFriday is my only day off, so my wife wakes me up and says, \u2018Brad, it\u2019s time for you to go to school.\u2019 I thought, Oh no, what have I done?\u201d the dad said.<\/p>\n
The next day student Brad walked into his physics class as usual and to his horror saw his dad waiting for him by his desk.<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t even notice him until after I had said hi to all of my friends, but I was super shocked,\u201d the teen said according to Buzzfeed.<\/p>\n
The other teenagers in the classroom enjoyed seeing Brad suffer with his dad sitting next to him and had a good laugh at his expense.<\/p>\n
Brad\u2019s sister Mollie, also had a good laugh at her dad showing up in Brad\u2019s class and shared the story on social media.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy dad told my brother if he got another call from the physics teacher complaining he would go sit in his class..dad got another call,\u201d writes Molli on her Twitter post.<\/p>\n
Even mother Denise Howard posted about her husband\u2019s actions.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Howard men are famous,\u201d said Bradley\u2019s mom. \u201cWe\u2019ve had a great time with this but more than anything we hope we don\u2019t get any more calls about Bradley interrupting in physics class!\u201d<\/p>\n

Like his wife Brad senior hopes this is a one off as he wasn\u2019t quite ready to enter a high school classroom.<\/p>\n
Dad said the physics teacher was grateful but added, \u201cI pray it was a one-time thing,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t think I\u2019d ever do it again.\u201d<\/p>\n
I did the same thing when my son \u2018couldn\u2019t remember\u2019 to turn in his homework. After a few days of me sitting next to him in a number of classes, his memory improved drastically\u2026<\/p>\n
It\u2019s so good to see parents follow through on their threats. Consistency and teaching your teen to respect teachers is so vital.<\/p>\n
