Abercrombie's Push Up Punishment Unlikely To Be Effective

by Brooke

As a therapist I have had to educate several parents through the years that their "creative consequences" were not acceptable to the state agencies that regulate children's safety.

These agencies are called different things in different states, but Child Protective Services or Department of Child or Family Services. Just some of the punishments that are prohibited in Indiana include physical exercise or requiring to take an uncomfortable position. I suppose the military is all about push-ups and running with packs, but I was surprised to hear that Abercrombie & Fitch store managers in Milan were using similar techniques. The Italian labor union wasn't very impressed either.

Abuse Allegations Continue Despite Lack of Clear Welfare Fraud Statistics

Claims of widespread welfare fraud are once again demonizing the poor, unemployed and disabled, despite a severe lack of evidence in the form of welfare fraud statistics, as to how much money or how many people are actually bilking the system.

During his 1976 presidential campaign, Ronald Reagan introduced what would prove to be a persisting urban legend: the Cadillac-driving welfare queen. More recently, the Los Angeles Times ran a report showing $69 million in California welfare money was being drawn out-of-state. However, it isn't illegal for a welfare recipient to use money out of state, as long as they get clearance from a case worker. Indeed, fraud was an issue with the case, as $11 million of that money was actually used at casinos in Las Vegas.
