Mom Calls Cops When 12-Year-Old Won't Do Chores
Not a lot to this story, just a couple of lines from the police blotter in the Sun News:
DISPUTE: A mother phoned police because she was having trouble getting her 12-year-old son to do his chores. The two got into an argument and that's when she phoned police. She said she didn't know how to handle the situation. Police gave her options for obtaining assistance with family problems.I saw this at the very bottom of a long list of other stupid police calls (including a rock thrown through the window of a house by a child who used to live in the how who was pissed about having to move) and it made me thing: What kind of mom calls the cops when her kid won't do his chores? Maybe if he had refused to do the chores and punched her in the face, maybe, but just because he wouldn't do them? Sounds more like a call to Dr. Laura or Dr. Phil, but the cops? The best part is the cops didn't laugh this off but instead gave her information about getting some help elsewhere. Gotta give the police some props for that.
If you have any suggestions for getting your kids to do their chores (other than calling for police back-up) please post them in the comments below.

Easy call here - no chores, no "stuff" - computer, cell phone, allowance, iPod... You get the picture, and so will they.
beat
your
children
Umm....maybe give them a spanking. Good lord people you are the parent. Kids need structure and consistancy....duh
A friend told me that when he was a kid and wanted to run away, his parents said OK, but you're not taking any of our stuff.
They stripped off his clothes, and put him on the back porch, waving good-bye.
Soon, he changed his mind.
Well IN some countries its now illegal to smack you children so hey why not get the cops to take care of it since theyll arrest you if you discipline your children
All you got to do is give them a good spanking. I have been through pregnacy twice and it is not easy my life was on the border line of dying and you telling me not to beat my child when they do wrong my hose my rules AMEN!
well beating your children definatly is not the answer, spanking is abuse and no matter how necesary it seems, its not worth hurting your child, find the things they love most, tv cell phone, gameboys, games hanging out with friends... ect. and take it away for a period until they relapse, you will be able to tell when the relapse is altough its not the first time they wine and cry. leaving your child in a lifeless room is a great alternitive to a beating aswell, one hit and your free to go or an hour bored off your ass in a lonely room with no outside contact. ive had to raise my sister and shees been fine about not getting in trouble and listening well and ive never one had to slap, spank or hit her. parentings not very hard just think back to the times where loosing the simple things was everything. good luck bye
The comments/commenters under this article fail. Hard.
Hey, morons:
Youth are people too, not yours to manipulate.
What an idiot, if she can't handle a kid doing chores she should put the kid up for adoption or something. Honestly, it's not that hard to get a kid listen to you.
Beat your children? Take their stuff anyway? What the FUCK is wrong with you dumb asses.
Wow, just wow @ these comments... Also to the failed mother who thinks she's allowed to hit her kids just because she birthed them ... Hey, they didn't ask to be born. It was YOU that brought them in this world, the child had no choice, you did.
I love how people (especially failed mothers) makes excuses for their poor parenting by deluding themself into thinking they have a sense of entitlement.
Damn...ya'll niggas are gay
Youth are people too. 65 years ago, the same comments on these pages were said as ways for racist shopkeepers to deal with blacks in their store Granted, not directly, but you get my point.
Fuck everyone who said "beat your kids, they'll get the message". Fuck you.
