Yeah, pretty much every kid HATES the dentist.  But I'm going to go ahead and promise you this ISN'T the right way to get them to go.

There's a 36-year-old woman named Shaurice Jones from Bath, Pennsylvania.  And last week, her 12-year-old son had a dentist appointment . . . and he did NOT want to go.

And he was SO against going that he climbed onto the hood of his mom's car.

So . . . she started driving anyway.  But instead of going to the dentist, she drove two miles to the police station on streets where the speed limit was 40 . . . apparently because she hoped they would help her convince her son to go to the dentist.

But when she got there, the cops WEREN'T interested in helping with the dentist argument . . . and they WERE interested in Shaurice driving two miles with her son on the hood of her car.

She was arrested and charged with child endangerment and reckless endangerment.
