We've all heard the phrase 'tough love' but one dad took it to a whole new level when he suspended his own daughter's driving license. 😱 The 16-year-old was caught texting while driving, a mistake that led to a $200 fine and a 20-day suspension. However, when her parents couldn't agree on the punishment, things took a dramatic turn. 🚗💨
