If I caught my 13 yr old drinking beer and wine, he'd be on Ebay trying to buy a new ass, cuz I'd have whipped his off. This sounds like the kid has control of the house.
Obviously the kid needs disciple. And it's funny. But I'm not sure that the level of glee evident in the parent auctioning the video game is all that appropriate.
Maybe its false story to get more people to look at auction? theres already 235000 hits on that page, I bet this link is posted on BB all over the world
... and he's probably 140 pounds. Hope the kid doesn't hold it against Dad when he's 18 ... 6' 7'' 200 pounds.
I got in trouble when I was a kid once, so my dad chucked my Nintendo off the balcony in the rain. Then he went downstairs and kicked it around the yard. Mario has never been the same.
Six foot three at thirteen! He ought to be playing with a basketball instead of a Playstation, in my opinion.
If that story is true, those parents are nuts - they've got a young teenager, and they are gonna learn real fast that they gotta keep very close tabs on him. -- droxford
You're saying that parents have to keep a very close tab on every teenager? My dad pretty much trusted me to do whatever I wanted and I have to say I think I'm doing alright. Never drank or did anything like that when I was a teenager.
