I'm not necessarily against unique punishments designed to get a child's attention but this is definitely going too far.

Not to defend the parents but this was the THIRD time she was put on "diaper duty?" You'd think after the first humiliation the kid would have learned.

I got a bad grade in sixth. I spent much of that summer scraping, removing rust, and repainting a metal shed. I think running some sprints in a diaper might have been much quicker.
