[QUOTE="Nikimoto, post: 650529, member: 18791"] He looks like him, always sort of has, but was a sweet kid. I was caught up in trying to get on my feet and work and go to school when I joined the local National Guard, so in hindsight only do I see some personality traits of his gene donor. When he was mad at his brother, and sent to his room for something at about 7, he tore a door length dragon poster he knew his brother loved. "I was so mad at you I had to, so it's really your fault not mine." Madness. Refusing to hear reason, about 11 beginning his ranting angry outburst over minuscule or nonexistent issues. When questioned why he argued so vehemently, his answer to the letter was, "People are wrong and I need to correct them." He would frequently comment he wanted to study law or forensics while he had grown up during my sociology studies and police career, thought he was trying to be like me or impress me. But he failed to recognize facts for what they are, and argued with bad info, even got emails and calls from his teachers with the same complaint. I warned him not to study for law or forensics if he was going to refute fact and insist on arguing lies, and he got angry, accusing me of being harsh and negative. We are not sure if he has been using drugs, but his spiral of the past two years seemed like it, and I am not naive...it quacks like a duck. What's sad is he has a very high I.Q. and has scored Exceeds Proficiency on many standardized tests throughout school. Just so full of himself he won't do the work. He will talk big and bluster loudly, but his product doesn't always pass. [/QUOTE]
