    Easter wakeup call

    Phoenix resident Sharron Dobbins, 40, was determined to get her two teenage sons out of bed for Easter services on April 1. When one of them sassed her back, she grabbed a Taser and “I said, ‘Get up! It’s Jesus’ Day!’ ” she told KNXV-TV. Dobbins said she “sparked” the weapon just to make noise, but the 16-year-old called police, who found two small bumps on the boy’s leg and arrested Dobbins for child abuse. Dobbins told KNXV, “I did not tase my son ... all I was trying to do is tell my kids to put God first.”

    I think there are better ways to handle delinquent children. We always had rules of the house. When of legal age, the understanding was either comply or leave. And do not return until willing to comply.

    Not really. It's worth looking at because she is possibly being framed. Or Jr. is being abused in the name of the Lord. = bad either way.

    I cannot find humor in this situation. She's in court and it could ruin her life.

    She should have just dumped a glass of ice water on him.

    He would have gotten out of bed rikki tik.

    That worked for my mom on me.

    How about a trumpet in ear? A memoraible awareness. It is Jesus Day and we will hear the trump!

    A friend of mine did that on his teenaged son a few years ago. He said it worked very well.

    I'm telling you, if I even heard her coming after she first told me to get up, I was scrambling out of that bed.

    She may not have had a glass of ice water, but I wasn't going to take the chance.
