    AFP: Court overturns father's grounding of 12-year-old





    My foot would be so far up that ass.....now you will start paying rent and start buying your own food.

    OTTAWA (AFP) — A Canadian court has lifted a 12-year-old girl's grounding, overturning her father's punishment for disobeying his orders to stay off the Internet, his lawyer said Wednesday.

    The girl had taken her father to Quebec Superior Court after he refused to allow her to go on a school trip for chatting on websites he tried to block, and then posting "inappropriate" pictures of herself online using a friend's computer.

    The father's lawyer Kim Beaudoin said the disciplinary measures were for the girl's "own protection" and is appealing the ruling.

    "She's a child," Beaudoin told AFP. "At her age, children test their limits and it's up to their parents to set boundaries."

    "I started an appeal of the decision today to reestablish parental authority, and to ensure that this case doesn't set a precedent," she said. Otherwise, said Beaudoin, "parents are going to be walking on egg shells from now on."

    "I think most children respect their parents and would never go so far as to take them to court, but it's clear that some would and we have to ask ourselves how far this will go."

    According to court documents, the girl's Internet transgression was just the latest in a string of broken house rules. Even so, Justice Suzanne Tessier found her punishment too severe.

    Beaudoin noted the girl used a court-appointed lawyer in her parents' 10-year custody dispute to launch her landmark case against dear old dad.

    I can understand the point of a court intervening on a child's decisions when the parents are going through a divorce.

    But this is ridiculous.

    exactly. if a court has veto power on something as small as basic behaviorial punishment like a grounding then maybe they should take care of food, clothing and college as well.

    then again i think there were a couple times in my childhood where my punishment was severe and i wish i could have gotten my grounding over turned.
