The woman sitting in that chair knows how to lay down the tough love. Is the child being humiliated? Sure. But what's more humiliating? Standing on the street holding a sign while your Mama watches, or bending over the rail with Bubba pounding your keester, while Bubba's jealous lover watches, and plans your brutal murder?
This boy is lucky anyone cares about him at all.
