At least they didn’t shoot him to save his life.
Actually not a bad solution to normally a no win scenario.
Now get the kid off drugs, off computer games and into therapy.

I believe that if I, or any of my siblings, ever had a tantrum that lasted over 15 seconds, we’d have been sent to the middle of next week. And that would’ve been the last tantrum ever.

That's the difference between a parent and someone who wants to be their kid's "friend". Some discipline applied now heads off extreme incidents like this in the future, in most cases. Sounds like these are parent wannabes, not real functional parents.

Throwing a tantrum over video games would be the end of video games.

Sounds like mom is hoping for a law suit.

Autistic...

But since we have parents that refuse to discipline the cops have to do it for them

That’s not the problem. Did you see the utter chaos that poor child is living in? That place was dark and cluttered, I bet everything is a mess and dirty, nothing makes sense, no routine, no plans, no point to life. I recognized it immediately as that is exactly how I grew up.
