[QUOTE="KFld, post: 12066, member: 2442"] Too bad they banned your girls also. They shouldn't have to suffer the consequences. It may be a good lesson for the boys to see what effect their actions have on others when they don't think about what they are doing. The showing no remorse brings back memories of my difficult child's first arrest. He was I think 12 or 13 and him and a friend were shooting paintball guns in the street at other kids and houses. Someone called the police who showed up at our house and I was appalled at how my son talked to them. I think being his first experience, he had no clue the authority the police have and I think he really believed he could manipulate them and turn the situation around by being sarcastic. He was put on probation for quite awhile through the juvenile courts. Not that any arrest is good, but I believe it taught him the importance of respecting the police when he was arrested for much bigger things as he got older. They don't realize how much worse they can make a situation by backtalking to a police officer. Yeesh!!!! [/QUOTE]
