Scary Story!!

[critter crazy]

I told my MIL that she needed to tell My SIL to press charges!! I would be so furious if someone pulled a gun on my child, real or Fake!! Just outrages! I wouldnt even give pressing charges a second thought! I would be down at the police station filling out forms! But it is her choice, not mine.

As the foster mom of 22 kids over 26 years

Press charges.

May be the best thing you or your family will ever do for this kid.

I definately think the child needs to face the consequences.... it is the parents reaction I am worried about. It may be wrong for me to think this way... but if the child is that unstable.... I would hate to see how unstable the parents might be if they are pushed over the edge.... That's what I meant by thinking about pressing charges. it seems for now those parents are willing to comply and do something to correct it.... but I'm not sure I would want them to snap if this is how their child acts.

But I am with you.... I would want to press charges for sure. But ultimately I guess it is the SIL that will have to live near these people.... tough position to be in... Yikes.

Definitely press charges. What if he takes it into a school?! Or what if he is acting stupid, and someone else who has a real gun, thinks his is real, and they shoot him, or a bystander (by accident)??

And of course dad has "no idea" where he got the pellet gun from. Sure. How does he get money? Allowance. Who gives him allowance? Mom and dad. Can he drive? No. Who drives him to buy what he wants and needs? PARENTS.

If dad tries to get him out of trouble, dad is being an enabler More than likely there are issues in that house.
