Beating a kid is no longer an option. You will go to jail for that.

So withdraw your consent for him to play. Whats more important, his grades or his football? All you have to do is step up, be the parent and tell the school no more, he's off the team.

If you know he has drugs call the cops and turn him in.

Take his cell phone, he really has no need of one. Take his car if he has one, he really has no need of one.

Tell him he is making your life miserable and you can make his life the same way.

It's you who has to step up and be the parent. You have to make him a man. That is NOT the job of the military or the taxpayers!

How dare any of you, most of all those of you who never served, to want put other kids in danger cause your kid is messed up! Your kid is that messed up and you want to send em to the military! What are you thinking! Think about it. You want to serve on a tank crew with your kid in a combat zone? Or do a foot patrol with your kid in a cambat zone?

All of you guys who think the military will make a man of him are badly mistaken. This isn't the 60's where they would send you to the stockade. If a kid is a pain in the butt they SEND HIM HOME! It's cheaper and more cost effective to get rid of a trouble maker and recruit a kid who wants to be there. By the time I retired in 96 we were sending kids home for writing 3 bad checks in 6 months. Fail a drug test you went home. Fail to follow orders, go home. Fail to be on time, go home. Only really serious stuff got you sent to jail. It was not my job to raise your kids when I was a Platoon Sgt. My job, by regulation was to see to their training, health and wellbeing. If a kid disobeyed orders they got wrote up and run in front of the commander. The 1SG, Commnader, PL and I would decide if they were worth giving another chance. 4 out of 5 times we would bust em and kick em out. Drug or booze problem 100% chance they were going home unless it involved selling. DUI, go home. Bad checks got sent home. Missing formations may get another chance but if other problems were there....go home. Be so marginal that you can't get promoted.....go home!

OK Rant over......

Rick

Today's Featured Article - Gatherin of the Orange - by Rick Nikolich. In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana. ... [Read Article]
