A 17-year-old kid from Texas got schooled by his dad (almost literally) after he couldn't stop talking during exams.
Bradley Howard (known as Brad) and his dad, Bradley Howard (confusingly also known as Brad), have a good relationship. However, when young Brad (referred to as YB from now on to avoid confusion) started acting up in his physics class, Dad Brad (DB) was not happy.
DB kept getting emails from YB's teacher. Speaking to Buzzfeed News, DB said that YB 'likes to be the life of the party, which gets him in trouble from time to time'.

He explained: "For some reason I said, 'Hey, if we get another call I'm going to show up in school and sit beside you in class'."
Sounds like one of those empty threats, right? WRONG.
DB continued: "Friday is my only day off, so my wife wakes me up and says, 'Brad, it's time for you to go to school'. I thought, 'Oh no. What have I done?'."
Yup, he only went and did it.

YB described the moment he realised his dad was in his class, as he said: "I didn't even notice him until after I had said hi to all of my friends, but I was super shocked."

It wasn't great for DB either, as he explained: "I was a bit nervous being there among the teenagers.
"Mentally I hadn't prepared to go into a situation like that."

DB has since said that he hopes that his son has learnt his lesson and that he won't have to sit with him again.
I don't know... the retweets alone are probably worth it.
Anyway, Twitter's loving the 'hands-on' parenting approach...
Fair play to DB. Awesome parenting skills.
