As parents, we tend to teach our children to know right from wrong, but oftentimes, because of different reasons, we fail. One father learned that his daughter was bullying a girl who had cancer at school. Things went far and she even pulled the girl’s wig off. This made the father angry so he decided to take matters in his own hands and punished his daughter in a way that caused a stir, as well as mixed emotions, on the Internet. Since many slammed him for how he dealt with his bully daughter, the father later deleted the post.
“My ex-wife and I have a 16-year-old daughter together of which I have full custody (she has moved on with her new family)… My daughter recently got in trouble at school for making fun of a student that lost her hair from cancer treatment. Including pulling off her wig,” he started his post.
“Apparently there is some pre-existing bad blood between the two of them, but I don’t think that even begins to excuse her behavior.”
As it turned out, his daughter was now dating this other girl’s ex-boyfriend and that was the reason why they weren’t fond of each other.
“At some point the other girl mentioned how my daughter’s boyfriend was just using her for sex (this was actually a big shock to me as I had no idea she was sexually active) and called my daughter a sl*t,” the father shared with CafeMom. “That’s what escalated the situation and resulted in the wig incident. Supposedly they have been arguing in class ever since my daughter started dating the guy in question. Basically just stupid teenage ‘he said she said’ nonsense.”After he learned of what was going on and what his daughter did, he gave her two options to choose from in order to teach her a lesson. The first one was for him to throw all her electronics away, and the second one was for her to go to the hairdresser and get a bald haircut. The daughter chose the latter and went to school with a bald head.
“…Everyone thinks I went way overboard. Her mother went ballistic at me saying it will make her the target of bullying (kind of the point, teach her some compassion),” the father wrote.
He believed he did just the right thing, but not many agreed with him. A lot of people took their time to comment on the situation. One person wrote: “Your daughter is a bully because you are a bully. I seriously doubt this is the first time you used abuse and humiliation to ‘teach her a lesson.’” Another person added: “There’s a term for what you did. It’s called child abuse. Taking away her electronics would have been an appropriate punishment. Grounding her would have been an appropriate punishment. Disrespecting her right to bodily autonomy and humiliating her is not an appropriate punishment. She’s unlikely to learn from it and if anything it risks perpetuating a cycle of bullying.”
However, there were also those who praised his parenting. “I support your decision completely. You’re her parent so you have every right to do this, it’s not abusive, it’s real life. If she’s comfortable attacking someone for something they have no choice over she needs to see how it feels,” someone in support of the father wrote.
“She will see what kind of impact actions like hers have on the victim and that will teach her a very important lesson,” another supporter added.

People are seriously struggling to find engagement ring in photo and you’ll need eagle-eyes to see it
In this picture, people are having trouble locating the engagement ring. Are You Able to See It?
Not only can optical illusions be a great method to challenge our minds, but they may also fool and seduce others. A woman recently asked others to help her find her misplaced engagement ring by posting a photo of herself at the beach.
An Odd Picture of a Misplaced Engagement Ring
Find her missing engagement ring among cream, gray, and brown rocks, leaves, and shells from her beach excursion was the latest challenge posted by a Reddit member.More than 1,600 people have commented on the article, many of whom being puzzled Redditors who are unable to find the lost engagement ring.One user said, “It’s the worst when you know it’s dead center and still don’t see it.” Another person, in the meantime, joked, “You know what? No… Locate your own nuptial rings!
One last individual has been duped more than once. “I came here to guess after seeing three things that looked like rings, but after seeing the hint, I realized I was wrong about the first three things,” they wrote.
Locating the Misplaced Engagement Ring
Nevertheless, a few people found the misplaced engagement ring quickly and gave guidance to others on how to do the same.One helpful user advised starting from the middle of the photo whenever possible.”Seek out the little, horizontal stick in the middle. From there, it’s a little to the left and down,” said someone another.A third Redditor said, “Well, it turns out that the ring does actually feature in the image, and to find it, you’re going to have to get your mega zoom on.” “Even though most rocks are the same color, you can find it by zooming in on the area in the center of the image. It’s next to a cream rock that has a leaf under it.”One last person stated, “If there was a chessboard grid in the picture, the object would be at 6B or 5B ish.”
An Alternative Viewpoint Completely
While some people were able to locate the lost engagement ring, others were able to look at the image differently and discovered additional concealed objects.”No ring, but I do see a snake, a toy army man, a socket, and a baby moose,” remarked one individual.They wrote: “It was found, but there was also something else that might have been a little piece of jewelry, or something else, or nothing.” Another individual was questioned.
Reddit Trivia Questions
There is a whole SubReddit on Reddit where users may mislead one another. These optical illusions don’t include a misplaced engagement ring. One Redditor described another optical illusion that is perplexing people as elusive and “shy.” Even though it seems like a simple illusion to solve, it becomes more difficult to locate the curve the longer you stare at it.”The color of the structures conceals the curvature. One commenter pointed out helpfully that they only stand out in your peripheral vision because you see less color, making the green and grey appear more similar, and you see less detail, making the gaps invisible.”I discovered it! That’s correct, though. Give it a minute.It is there, and it isn’t there. Yes, it isn’t it either. Oh nerts!” jokingly said someone else.
Perplexing Circles
You cannot unsee them after you have seen them, according to one user. “Excellent! It took me a minute to realize how this worked after I had been staring at it.One person could not see the circles, though. “I have witnessed this twice, and I still can’t see them. ugh,” they penned.In the interim, the OP made some suggestions. KingBanana advised, “Try looking where the vertical lines are, in between the squares.”
The degree of optical illusions varies, and viewers appear perplexed by the picture of the misplaced engagement ring. It should come as no surprise that there are other optical illusions that have managed to fool individuals. There is an amazing world full of visuals to stimulate and captivate the mind.
