Default His mother should have swallowed him.



I wouldn't have lived long enough for the police to get there.

We had a kid EXACTLY like that in my neighborhood when I was a kid. Rocks and all. About the same age too. He was dead by 18. Stabbed at a party. Shit gets real when you get older.

The sad thing is how long that meltdown had to go on before somebody stepped in and actually stopped the kid from destroying the neighborhood. Note the big guy watched his car get repeatedly vandalized before he finally stepped in and stopped it. No one wanted to touch the kid, because they know if you touch a kid, even one openly vandalizing shit, you stand a very good chance of getting arrested yourself. Kid knew he was untouchable, which is why he was able to act out like that.

See how surprised the kid was when the guy took him down and then the police hauled him off? That's not how it's supposed to go. The kid really believed he could do whatever he wanted to, and no adult could touch him.

Edit: Looks like maybe the big guy was a neighbor, not the car owner, which makes it even more unusual that he would put his own butt on the line. He could easily have gotten arrested for touching the kid if he had gotten the wrong cop/department.

Almost for certain. I'd also add that he may also be afflicted with any one of a variety of behavior disorders.

Kids at that age aren't aggressive and defiant for no reason unless they are early onset schizophrenia.

There's also the teaching of morals, manners, respect, and values at home that is most probably non-existent at an earlier age.

Agreed completely. I should clarify; many kids are inherently defiant/aggressive.
Nature of the beast. I meant displaying that amount of aggression/defiance is not normal.

Either way the parent is responsible, either for causing it, or needing to get him help.
Easy to sit back and guess from a chair but none here really know the truth.
That kid may have an alcoholic parent that whips his ass at home. Or he is completely neglected.

I spent 15 years dealing with troubled teens in NY. Many of them had very dysfunctional families but not all.
Out of 2000+ kids I worked with, I'd guess about 5% came from good families but had organic/mental issues at fault.

Raising my 4 kids (2 boys/2 girls) with respect and values. They refer to adults as Mr. or Mrs. and are very respectful.

They have also been loved and held just as much as we come down on them for "the rules".
Scott

That would be exceedingly difficult. As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure I don't have the temperament for it.

We call it the magic words

please, thank you, yes sir, no sir, yes mam, no mam, no thank you.

It makes me sad when people are shocked when my children use these words, where I grew up these were normal manners used by every kid

And if you didn't use those words, you got a backhand. I've tried to instill manners in my boys. However, with my younger son, his mother doesn't believe in manners, she's offended by manners. But, he does use his manners when he is with me.

I'd say globally 2-5% is pretty accurate.

This defiance is more common now, adults are weaker, and the internet allows kids to see other kids being defiant.
Kids learn to report parents for being "strict" that in their minds is "abuse", then CPS or schools get involved and side with the children, and the kids know it.


And except for the 2 to 5% mentioned above; this is a learned behavior.
