I don't like to see it either.
A friend of mine's husband died of brain cancer very suddenly a little over a year ago. Her 9 year old son is giving her a rough time. He does not cuss his mother out, but he ignores her when she tells him to do something and argues whenever he does not get his way. He is a big kid and his mother is very petite. I was over at their new house, helping to put up a fence and he sat on her lap and would not let her get up when she wanted to, for a few minutes, which seemed like forever. She tried arguing with him, which seemed to have no effect and threatened him with lame punishments. I did not know how to react. I think the proper response would have been a quick smack on the rear end, a time out and loss of a computer. I did nothing. I don't think he is a bad kid, yet. I worry about both of them.
He also beat up a kid at school who was teasing him for having no dad. I told my friend that I thought he was justified.
I want to help them, but feel awkward butting into what should be a private matter.

Keith That's a huge thing for him to have lost his Dad. It may not hurt for him to talk to a professional about it. He for sure needs a man in his life. Good luck and I hope he turns out well. Prayers.
It is what it is.

I have 3 or 4 myself
1) Disrespectful kids.
2) Parents that have noisy kids at church or in public restaurants. Give me the No kids section please!!
3) People that snap back and say call me by my name not sir or ma’am. That one really ticks me off!! Ok I’ll refer to you as butthead. It’s hardwired into my brain. I can’t not say yes sir or no sir
4) People with no cell phone edict!! I had a client answer his phone during a prayer before breakfast one time. I made sure that jack wagon was in the wrong spot all morning while hunting birds. I cooled off after lunch and he got his limit.
Everything the left touches it destroys

A waitress that reach across the table when serving your food. Serve from the left and remove from the right. Also there was no time out when I was growing up. Once I told my dad, just a minute and 10 seconds later I got a boot in the a$$. He said if I wanted you in a minute I would have said so. LOL now.

Barking dogs. Yoga pants on women who SHOULD NOT be wearing them!
swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo
You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

People who wear college shirts, rings, or other stuff that have never been to a college in their life...
Much less the one that they are wearing their gear...
Good Luck and God Bless you and yours,

Showing clear disrespect for land and resources, including, but not limited to, litter, ORVs in closed areas, wasting game meat, etc. They say that the punishment should fit the crime. In my opinion, hanging or firing squad should be used frequently for these crimes.
