"The boy's mother told police the boy was thrashing about with a knife. Nobody was charged," a police spokeswoman said. The father managed to overpower the boy and no one was injured in the fracas early on Sunday morning, a local newspaper reported. The father pulled the plug on the game at around midnight when the boy refused to stop playing and go to bed. Source: CNN Good artists copy, great artists steal.

Chances are the boy is unstable already.

You know the internet is kina cool. Strip away sex, race, age and any other visualy recognised features and you are left with what a person has to say. That is all you judge on on here.
I might have learned more from the teens on here that I have from the adults at my job.

Children! If the Daddy from Hong Kong had given his CHILD some reasonable discipline earlier, he would not have had this problem. The problem was not the game, it was the child's reaction to a reasonable request that was the problem. | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 419 UGN Member | UGN Member Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 419 |
