Jordan of Albemarle, NC was updating software on Hannah's computer. Jordan says he worked six hours on Hannah's laptop that day and spent $130 on new software and that's when he found the post made by Hannah. Hannah thought she had hidden this post from her parents, but her father works in IT and found the nasty post she made, titled "To My Parents".
Jordan, obviously upset, decided to make a video of her "punishment". In the video, he reads the post Hannah wrote. He rants for a few minutes and then the camera moves to Hannah's laptop on the ground. Jordan takes out his .45 and shoots nine bullets into her laptop.
Warning: This video contains some foul language.
In her letter, Hannah cursed several times which her father says is disrespectful, but you can see where she gets it.
I can imagine Hannah's "rebellious post" hurt and embarrassed her parents and apparently Jordan decided to hurt and embarrass his daughter. Jordan posted this video on Hannah's Facebook page and on YouTube. As of today, this video has 21,400,462 views on YouTube.
In the video, Jordan says:
"Hannah, you were grounded for about three months for doing something very similar to this and I would have thought with a father that worked in IT for a living that you'd have better sense than to do it again."Yes, Hannah should have had better sense, but she is a teenager. All teenagers say bad things about their parents at some point...it goes with the territory. It definitely wasn't a smart thing to shoot the laptop. Now Jordan is out his time, $130 and a laptop (he paid for it).
Teenagers can be difficult to deal with especially when they become rebellious and I totally understand how Tommy Jordan feels. Do you think Jordan dealt with his daughter's rebellion appropriately? Should he have embarrassed her among her friends? What did he teach her with this video?
I would like to know what you think...become a member of my blog and leave your comments below.
