So, I may be responsible for a child being homeless...

[TelephoneAngel]

Only fiftyfour , you can find me on the calendar in October. I think I remember someone who told she or he were in the seventies, but I can't remember whom it was.

AWWWW I iz only liddle baby! Hoorah!

I agree, wait for your fiancé if that make you feel (or be) safer, but don't waste any time being nice.

I'm going with be safer (of course I'll feel safer too). He is a true believe in walk softly and carry a big mother fucking stick.

I think I may be the oldest poster. I was born in '51.

Smiley, do what you have to do to protect your reputation, but if it comes down to your reputation or your safety, boot them ASAP. With uniformed help.

What a pair of turds.

[morgana]

Oh, and is anyone else wondering about the "attack" by her husband?

yes it crossed my mind to wonder about that.

[taxguykarl]

I just turned 35 so shush.

I just turned 39. Double-shush, you whippersnapper.

I turn 46 in another month and a half.

Yes, this is smelling like some kind of scam to me too.

Don't give them any time, it sounds like the kid will just fuck up your stuff out of spite if he is given the chance. Death threats are not something that can be written off as just a phase and mommy dearest needs to learn that her little boy's problems are real and will have real effects on his life as well as her's.

Listen to Solumina on this one, Smiley. Not everything of yours (or what you're responsible for) can be moved. You'll be amazed at the damage that a kid can do.

No good deed goes unpunished--I speak from experience here.

Do bear in mind that it's not you responsible for his homelessness - it's him, and it's his mother who hasn't taught him that certain actions make people feel unsafe and not happy to live in the same house.

Look after yourself, your family, and THEN your professional rep and your stuff.

[trailerparkmedic]

PLEASE call the cops the next time the kid does something illegal, like threaten you. Make it clear to mom that you'll be doing this so she can't be surprised.

Write down a date, and rules : Out by noon on Oct 31 2010. All personal items must be removed by that date or discarded. yadda yadda. REnt of $1234345345 is due by EOB Oct 31 2010.

Take pics TODAY with datestamp of all the stuff you've got around, and how you have it setup. (also, the big ticket items if you can).

Call the cops this week and see if they're willing to send out an officer to help with the asshole moveout. (dunno what date it is, but ask if they can do it when you call).

good luck hon.

That kid needs help. Majorly bad. My oldest male cousin started acting that way when he was a teen. Not saying it will happen to that kid, but said cousin is now in jail for breaking and entering, larceny, kidnapping 1st degree of a minor, and murder second degree.

I'm not, I've met the guy, and I would not doubt that he would do what he was accused of doing.

[Mikkel]

Mikkel is as old as my 3rd little sister...

I be


The best thing is that it really doesn't matter on this board.

Well we know who's this kid's role model is

That's a point. Mum isn't going to provide the kid with the help needed to prevent this future. It may well take Social Services to do so. Or a police 'frightened straight' program.

Just what I was thinking. If he has escaped from an abusive situation, it's not a surprise that he's going to be exhibiting violent behaviour, both as a stress reaction and because he's never seen anything else modelled. (It can happen even if he knows it's not appropriate, just because he has no clue how to make something that is appropriate work.)

Smiley: I really hope that you kicking them out is a wake-up call to the mom and she gets help for both of them. Continuing to let them stay with you isn't going to help anyone.
