    Whoa, having him arrested for that is way out of line.

    And I think that just goes to show that she cannot handle her own child.

    I agree with Arucard.

    'Zactly my thoughts.

    Also, this is hilarious, but it's pretty messed up too. I mean, if he's going off the rails, okay, get the cops in if you really have to. But this was not the straw that broke the camel's back by any reasonable measure.

    Ok that makes no sense to me. If i had a son that opened a present early i'm not sending him to jail that would destroy our relationship. I know if i had that happen to me i'd rather live on the street than with a B**** like that


    Fat kids are harder to Kidnap.

    Why didn't she just spank the little brat and call the cops and take the GB away from him.

    I remember this story about this mom who sold her son's 360, but kept the box and filled it with coal. Wrapped up the box with Coal and placed it under the tree.

    LMAO!!!

    Anyway, it does kind of sound, outlaw, that the mother son relationship wasn't that rosy to begin with since, for example, he stole money from her.

    Wait, I may be confused (I usually am), but are you saying you think he's 19? The article doesn't say how old he is. The mother is only 27, so that's not too likely unless she gave birth to him when she was 8 years old. In which case I'd probably be more impressed than anything.

    There is no wrong or right here. This is just good old fashioned comedy.

    He took you guys seriously when you said it was Corncracker

    I happen to think it was the right thing to do if the kid has a criminal history. If the kid were just some average little boy who does nothing wrong, I'd suggest placing the mom and great-grandma in the mental hospital.

    The thing that really catches my eye about this is the 63-year-old great-grandma. Still, calling the police on your friggin great-grandson? Just take away the present or something. Learn to be a better great-grandmother.

    el oh el parents that cannot parent on their own and waste the time of cops that should be doing serious work and saving lives.

    I'm all for parents actually teaching their kids a lesson, but christ, the cops aren't nannies.

    Why isn't it? Even I think it was okay and I think everything most parents due is wrong.
    Because he didn't commit a crime. There's a difference between actually commiting a crime and 'technically' commiting a crime. Opening a Christmas present early isn't a crime, at all, period. If the mother wanted to get the police involved to scare him that's one thing but he was charged with a crime. That's ridiculous.

    I also think she should have waited for him to do something that actually resembled a crime in some way before she called the police, but that's just me.

    Edit: Normally I think these kinds of things are funny, but for some reason or another I don't in this case. Not because I disagree with what happened, but it just genuinely didn't laugh. Dunno why.
