Man you raise them right, nurture them, push education and give unconditional Love and support.
Seems when they turn 17 their brains take a break and logic escapes them.
When a 17 year old child lies to you in front of a Police office the next step is the Army Recruiters Office.
This burned my arse bad, I raise my children well..peer pressure and she couldn't say no and had my 7 year old Son with her. She told the police officer that her Mom and Dad cant speak English. The Police Officer called and asked if I spoke English..hell yeah that and German, Korean, 2 Dialects of Chinesse and a lil Spanish. My wife is fluent in Korean and English.
So here I am 3:30 in the morning talking to Police, which were cool about the whole thing. They were gonna put my Daughter in Juvvie and my Son in DHS...
Now here is a Daughter on the National Society Honor Roll, Honor Student and writes for the local Paper her dream is to be a Journalism...she was watching my Son and went to a party that got raided by the Police.
She is beyond grounded....cell phone, car...gone.
It's tough to be a Father at times.
