when michelle tribout went on strike she was only hoping to get some respect from her children instead she became an international media star
It all began when a newspaper reporter walked by the tribout house and saw Mrs.Tribout in a treehouse she was telling her husband (on the ground below) that she wasn't coming down or cooking or cleaning until the kids started pitching in and showing some gratitude
The next day the local newspaper published a photograph of Mrs.Tribout in the treehouse. Soon after that film crews from five tv stations showed up the bbc (british broadcasting corporation) called and so did a radio station in australia
Why did she go on strike? according to Mrs. Tribout the children-Misty who is 15 years old; joseph,13; and Rachel'7- were fighting talking back and failing to get out of bed. The final straw came when they didn't get up for breakfast- even after she made five trips upstairs to wake them up
