Drag Me To Hell was one of your favorite horror movies? Well. How 'bout that.

I actually thoroughly enjoyed the original Japanese version of The Eye. If I'm watching a horror movie it's for something like demonic apparitions or zombies, etc.

go check the ratings of dram me to hell on rottentomatoes

Well to be fair the page states:

''Sam Raimi returns to top form with Drag Me to Hell, a frightening, hilarious, delightfully campy thrill ride.''

And most of the critics comments praise the movie due to the directors past movies so i guess you can consider it a good parody or bizzare movie. Because as a horror movie it simply fails.

Is it only thousands of kids that have anger issues? I didn't know that. I'm not sure you do either.

Let's assume the kid did go to rehabilitation from April until July last year which we actually had to take a loan out to pay for, and he did come back all "reformed."

Then about a year later he socked his mom in her left eye because she turned down his television set. Then what? I guess we repeat the psychiatry? I suppose in stead of leaving it for the court to deal with, we're supposed to leave it to pharmaceuticals.

Therapy and Anger management should be perfectly sufficient. What makes you think jail is the answer? Thats last resort and your just jumping right into it.

He's 16. Just an immature stupid kid at the moment. You know him better than I do but do you honestly think if you don't press charges on him in this circumstance he'll never ever smarten up? I dont know him but i seriously doubt that's the case. The impacts of criminal charges last forever. But hey w/e your the parent...if you do decide to press charges and have it go through the court system and the kid ends up in jail I hope you can look back at it and feel good as a parent.

What would your father do?

I agree with the above. Sending him to jail would teach him a lesson, and i agree that this kid needs a lesson, but i think he also needs help. He is 16, a son of a girl who gave birth at the age of 16, he is apparently addicted to drugs, and then we have to factor in possibilities of his life that we aren't sure of such as if he had a any kind of father figure growing up, social problems, etc. There is a lot of stuff we don't know, and jumping on this "eye for an eye" and "send him to jail, that will teach him" are all vengeance acts that you want to happen because you think it would be fair, not because it would be just. I say no go on pressing charges, instead go for counseling and see what a trained professional says.

[QUOTE="sboyer2"] Frankly I think you are the serious raging idiot. Therapy alone is enough to make sure he doesn't develop into a women hating psychopath. Sending the kid to jail isn't going to change that at all...only going to fill him with more rage and hate against the mother and father and the world in general. It's not going to make him change or realize anything any quicker than just letting time pass and let him grow up. Thousands of teens have anger issues...it eventually subsides or they get treatment and almost all of them end up fine. Anger management and a psychiatrist would do a lot more for him than sending him to jail and having a criminal record follow him around for life. because of being an idiot at 16. If he's as bad as you seem to think he is he'll end up in trouble soon anyways...but under no circumstances should a parent ever press criminal charges on their own child.sboyer2

All they had.

Mr. Clean always kinda freaked me out.

[QUOTE="clayron"]Too many in this thread are idiots. Serious. Raging. Idiots. TC, you're best bet is to convince the mother to press charges. This type of behavior can escalate into something more violent, and the con could develop some serious bad habits towards his mother and women. I know whipping his ass is the preferred response. However, when you get back home the mother will not support and a therapist, that should be you. The last thing you need to do is put yourself in a legally compromising position. Let the courts deal with him. But if he ever raises his hand to his mother again I suggest you beat the tar out of him.sboyer2
