Mom Takes Elf On The Shelf Prank too Far
Pranking your kids is a right of passage. Especially around the holidays. And that is fine when it is things like letting your kids think Santa was in the house by eating all the cookies and drinking the milk. But one mom took a prank involving an elf on the shelf too far. the elf on the self is a weird enough concept to begin with.

I imagine that little girl will be having nightmares about the elf on the shelf now, but at least the mom got some attention online.
