[QUOTE="Mikey, post: 49632, member: 3579"] MB: Good points. But the PD recommended that I call them, rather than bring him to them, should I decide to do that. And no, it wasn't a good idea to have him drive. But considering where he was, and the known animosity those people have towards me (and they obviously recognize my car, since they tell McWeedy when I "cruise" their neighborhood looking for him), it wouldn't have been a good idea to show up there myself. Call me crazy (and you will), but the one thing PotMonster has never done is drive under any influence. This actually came up in one of the arguments where he was trying to convince me he was a "smart stoner" (is there such a thing?) [img]:rofl:[/img] In trying to make his case, he said that ne [b]never[/b] drives under the influence, or with anyone who is. He either waits it out or gets a ride. And to his somewhat dubious credit, while he may have come home stoned, he's never come home incoherent or obviously impared when he was the one driving. In fact, most of the times he's refused to come home he now admits were because he was too drunk or stoned to drive. AT the time, we thought he was being his typical, disrespectful, defiant self. Maybe he was, but possibly for different reasons than we thought. I may be wrong, but that may be the only functioning neuron he has in his grassified brain. So at the time, telling him to stay put and dry out or get a ride home was the best I could hope for. Next time, I might not do that, but that'll be next time. Thanks for the input, though. I appreciate it when someone makes me think about my actions - I really do. Mikey PS: according to the police, now that he's 17, these won't be "juvie" records if he gets involved with the police. They go on his big-boy records forever. The only difference is which system he gets processed by: juvie or adult. [/QUOTE]
