LOL I love those goofy cars, if it is anything like the one I had when I was stationed in Italy. It was an aweful color, standard, very very small. But I am small too so it was a good fit. That was how I learned to drive a standard.

It’s pretty cool you all can still connect like that while he is in Germany.

Please keep me posted on how he is doing and where he goes.

videogames never hurt anybody

Like I said never did anybody any good.

Could you improve your hand eye coordination in other ways? Yes.

You did not become addicted to video games perhaps because you had other preexisting interest or perhaps video games addict people who are born with addictive personalities (most likely I think).

Too many parents will use TV and video games to keep their young children occupied and out of their hair.

Better to never have either in your home and learn to deal with your children and teach them to entertain themselves, teach them to control themselves.

I have seen too many kids waste away their youth in front of TV and Video games, mine included.

You can cut a lamp cord with a scissors and strip it with your teeth. You can get aligator clips at Radio Shack. I am proposing connecting to the mains via lamp cord and aligator clips to get around the luggage lock, undetected. Alternatively, a pair of screw drivers could pop a luggage lock.

i’m talking about publik skool edumacated, inner city kids here.. they’re more likely to grab a glock, and knock over a store to steal one than to improvise like that.

Time to take mom’s stupid pills away.

She’s as bad as people that call 9/11 if McDonalds messes up their order.

I have thought about this some more and suspect that the article does not tell the whole story.

I suspect the kid was being unruly. The story says that he went through the entire house turning on all of the light.

I think this kid was also being verbally abusive. With no adult male to take the kid to task I do not blame her for calling the cops.

Unfortunately I think the next time the kid will probably get more violent and maybe break her phone.
