EvilMonkey Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Good for her. I vote for best mom. Although for some reason the son's excuse about a friend leaving it there reminds me of the time Greg Brady got caught with cigs in his coat pocket.

The old Michael Irvin "I hid the crackpipe in my pocket from some friends who were using it" excuse Thats a good one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) This mom knows how to send a message! I bet the son got it loud and clear. I've gotta drink to this lady. Edited January 9, 2008 by YASNY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasox24 Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I guess it's cool that she's standing by her terms (one being no alcohol), but come on lady, your son is 19 years old. If you don't think he should be allowed to drink alcohol, well, that's just ridiculous. Once a person becomes of college age, it should really be up to him to decide. It's not like she found heroine or cocaine in his car. Now, if the kid was 16 years old and still in high school and under the supervision of his parents, I'd be fine with this. But, he's obviously not. He is considered an "adult" by law and is his own man at this point. Don't sell his car to prove a point that is dumb. I'm guaran-damn-tee you she was drinking alcohol or smoking weed or some s*** when she was 19. And if she wasn't, well, good for her. But she is not her son.

He's not of legal drinking age, and the booze was IN THE CAR. Open alcolhol is not legal in the car. So not only did he break multiple laws, he also basically took a car his Mom paid for, broke one of the two friggin rules she set, and probably drove drunk. How is he is "own man" doing this in a car his parents bought for him? And did you miss the part where this isn't about having alcohol - its about having alcohol IN THE CAR?

But he wasn't. And she bought the car for him. If he bought the car, pays for insurance, etc. and wants to do something dumb, that's his stupidity. But, the mom bought the car and laid down the law. Good for her! As a future father (in 19 weeks or so), I'm taking notes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't about the drinking, it was about booze in the car. He had 2 rules, he broke one. If he doesn't like that he can always buy his own car. I had 3 rules if I wanted any help for college from my parents: no tattoos, no earrings, no motorcycles. Seem pretty silly, but I needed every penny, so I dealt with it. Never got the earring or motorcycle, but got the tattoo, AFTER college. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipps Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) Shes got to be a marketing director somewhere.I think she knew what she was doing there,she has probably been getting calls like crazy.Iam not saying it was the only reason because iam sure she did want to teach him a lesson,but as she was writing it out I know she was thinking this is going to catch some eyes.

santo=dorf Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) Hey, it's right by me, and I have $3700 lying around. Maybe I should be part of the national news. EDIT: Already sold. Maybe I can be the first dickhead to call in and tell how she's going too far. Edited January 9, 2008 by santo=dorf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
