Mother gets 12 yr son arrested for opening x-mas present

[Apollo]

^ lol

 

[Addendum]

How do you know that that wasn't a gift they had saved up to buy? The one 'big' gift they were looking forward to him opening?

He was told specifically 'not to open it' and he disobeyed.

Disobedience is a big deal wouldn't you say? Every crime has it's basis in disobedience.

Sure it might not seem like a big deal to you, but as both DD and I said..it's the straw darling. The one big straw when considered that they probably put a lot of heart and anticipation into him unwrapping that gift on Christmas Day.

You wouldn't understand, but I do.

Opening a christmas present early is not a crime.

And it's not the police's job to raise and/or discipline children because for whatever reason the parent can't handle him/her.

It doesn't matter if it was the one gift they were looking forward to see open. It was a complete minor issue that the mom took way too serious and blew out of proportion.

Better call the cops when Billy says no to cleaning dishes or taking out the trash

Why was he even getting any presents in the first place....presents are a reward for good behavior....and he obviously doesn't deserve any.

There is no room for parenting logic in this thread, C. Lee! Get out!

because they're Idiots...IDIOTS heck, lower the age of consent to 14, but keep an IQ limit on it, because more MENSA pack super awesome prize winners like these keep having children and it's ****ing up the world I happen to live in.

 

[WeaponZ2]

My sister opens everyones gifts early.....even gifts that arnt heres. Shes one of those people that has to have more gifts then everyone else so she counts them. Then she opens them all to make sure she gets better things.
Shes evil

Amen.

In fact, I think I'm gonna stand by the poster in my Sociology teacher's office:

Sterilise stupid people.

The world goes crazy!!!

Just another prime example demonstrating how every kid needs a dad around to kick his ass when necessary.

and just when i thought i heard everything..........

Batman should adopt him.

Made me think of this:

 

[Assassin]

Let's see... his mother's a single mom, 27 years old, and he has a great-grandma who's only 63, one can safely assume that this family has a history of getting knocked up young and unmarried, which means they also probably have a history of being very short on money.

Last weekend, Toys R Us had GBA Micros on sale for 35 bucks. So that's probably all they could afford.

At least that's my guess.

As for why the arrest, simple enough too. Single moms have a hell of a time raising boys. Without a father figure around, boys will fight mom's rules and test the limits as often as they can. The mom clearly needs some kind of disciplinary support, so why not the police? Sounds reasonable enough to me.

Couldnt have said it better myself, the people *****ing that he was arrested arn't seeing the bigger picture.

Made me think of this:

That scene was a joke. I love Morrison, but his current Batman run is ass.

Better than Frank Miller's work on All-Star Batman & Robin.

Little Billy: "Mommy, can I open my Christmas present early?"

Billy's mother: "No, Billy, you can't. You have to wait for Christmas."

Little Billy: "Why?"

Billy's mother: "Because I said so."

Little Billy: "But I wanna open it now!"

Billy's mother: "NO, Billy."

Little Billy: "I WANNA OPEN MY CHRISTMAS PRESENT!!!"

Billy's mother: "(sigh) Okay, just know that the instant you do, I have an anti-opening system which is designed to protect your presents. The instant you touch that first present, it will trigger a hidden tommy gun which will shoot your body full of holes, then a compartment underneath you will open where your bleeding body will fall into the basement and be impaled on super sharp spikes. Next, I will come down to scold you, saw your body into pieces with a chainsaw, and feed the remnants of your flesh to coyotes."

^^^Now that would scare a kid.

 

[Kmack]

That is absolutely ridiculous.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

A Gameboy Advance? You're ****ing kidding me....

 

[Addendum]

Now the nintendo fans get pissed because someone didn't buy a DS

 

[Spidey-Bat]

Atleast if she bought a DS it would make more sense to throw him in jail. But for a GBA? That's insane.

 

[screenamesuck]

so sad that I live so close to these people. I read about that in the local paper while on break yesterday at work.

 

[Venom Drool]

wow. she had him at 15. irresponsable *****
