"Parents in Florida have forced their son to stand outside wearing a sign detailing his bad grades. Michael Bell Jr of the seventh grade was told he must stay on the street corner wearing the double-sided sign after they discovered he failed three classes. He was also described by his teacher as the &amp;quot;class clown&amp;quot;, reports WSVN. The sign says: &amp;quot;Hey, I want to be a class clown. Is it wrong?&amp;quot; The back of the sign reads: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m in the 7th grade and got 3 F&amp;#039;s. Blow your horn if there&amp;#039;s something wrong with that.&amp;quot; He said: &amp;quot;I got an F in most of my classes so as a punishment I&amp;#039;m supposed to stay here for the whole spring break.&amp;quot; Michael Bell Sr explained: &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t know any other way, I&amp;#039;m trying to reach him. He doesn&amp;#039;t want to be reached and this is my last resort. &amp;quot;If I don&amp;#039;t do anything, he&amp;#039;s going to be a statistic and I don&amp;#039;t want him to be a statistic.&amp;quot; Bell Jr added that the punishment is working for him so far. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m sorry that it has to get to this point and that when I get back to school, I&amp;#039;m going to do better,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;gt; 10-year-old French boy misses bus, drives dad&amp;#039;s car to school &amp;gt; School gives student car for good grades "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
