KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- What is proper discipline and what is going too far?
You will find both ends of the spectrum when it comes to a punishment served by a 12-year-old Kansas City boy.
The boy has attention deficit disorder, but according to his mother he's also defiant, on the wrong path and spinning out of control. At her wits' end, she meted out a very public punishment Wednesday.
"He is a very smart and intelligent little boy, he just doesn't know how to use his ability," mother Jessica Murafetis said.
