OK peeps../buckle up....cuz it's gonna hurt to read this shit....so first off...garrett has now gotten himself Suspended from school for the 3rd time in one month....the first time he just lost it at school to the V.Principal when she confiscated his skateboard...(for good reason) he got 2 days for this one.....2nd time he was literally in a "FIGHT CLUB" situation...he denies this but the other 5 kids all say YES It was a fight club gig....he got 1 day for this...both times he lost his skateboard for 2 weeks....now he had JUST got the damned thing back...and as he was walking home from school....he sees this kid...(background here) this kid (6th grader) 2 weeks prior to this has spit in a girls face, girl was a friend of garretts..he had gotten into this kids face, threatened him to stay away from this girl or he will know the meaning of PAin....was a threat enough? no! he then sees the kid on the way home from school....purposely trips him and shoves him to the ground...kid then starts swearing at him...they chase each other around...then garrett literally taps him on the face and then SLAPS HIM!!!!!!!!! omg....!! my son went into total BULLY-MODE....!!!now mind you...this kid had JUST gotten out of being beaten up by some other kid before garrett got to him....garrett didnt know this but anyway....also turns out this kid gets continually picked on daily and is from an "at risk" home....of course garrett didnt mention any of this to us....we find it out from the school calling us....now I was trying my best to give my son the benefit of the doubt..UNTIL i heard the tale....now Im horribly disgusted with my demon spawn!!....I dont yell or even swear at him...Im just quietly sickened.....his dad and I discuss this crap and decide that he needs a week for each day he is suspended to NOT have his skateboard...so a total of 5 weeks this time....yeh he got a 5 day suspension!! and if this kids mom had presses charges...garrett wouldve been arrested, had a ticket for at least 600 bux AND community service to boot....if he has any other issues...he will then be dropped into another Jr High....if he screws up THERE>..he will then go straight to Juvenile hall!!! O M G !!!!!! So I get Garrett into the counselor to try and get inside his head here....and all he can focus on is the loss of his fuckin skateboard!! omg...he says he knows how bad he was in all this YET still whining about a damned board....if he REALLY knew...he would just shut up, MAN UP ..take his heat and deal with it.....!!!but that seems to be beyond him....
there is more but Im too drained to go on...
