Soo sad today because I got to pick up my son from the mall's security office last night. He decided to take his Imagination and impulsivity too far by convincing mall security that he had intent of stealing a $25 teddy bear because he rushed out with it trying to be silly showing off for a friend. This decision has resulted in a $425 fine with program completion in regard to NOT stealing. The other option was police intervention with grand larceny charges on his permanent record. He would never be able to find work and his college career would be a waste of paid money.
So, their way of punishing my son is NO punishment at all because he takes nothing from it. He should have been put to work for this restitution fine at the very store, and made to own his poor decision. I do NOT understand this states logic on discipline.
The crazy part about it is that we have our court case THIS Thursday, unrelated to the mall issue, but none the less a felony act against us his parents vehicle. I have NO idea why he has chosen this dark path.
After all endured he has chosen tp schedule a fight with two others tomorrow to supposedly square a pride feud... really? This child is NOT taking theses obstacles as life lessons to turn his life around for the better regardless of my tiresome attempts to get him to see the error of his ways thanks to this failed system that does NOT support parents in this state.
I wanted to move out of here because of this lack of reasoning from my son. Its as if he is content with turning into a product of his environment instead of taking the gifts of a great life we his parents have offered, yes in poverty BUT with moral principle discipline and constantly addressing that life IS hard work and even more so for those who choose a path of selfish laziness that only leads to double the work for the stubborn who think there is an easier way than the evident.
With my heart broken, pockets bleeding within the desert we find ourselves this year, and discontent for our living situation and sad laws unsupportive of parents... I pray for peace and a better outcome of circumstance soon... always looking up, in Jesus Christ name... Amen.
