[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a mom to a 12 y.o. boy, what happened seems completely predictable. One 11 can control himself and make good judgments. A bunch of 11 year olds screwing around with gaming on a weekend night? They are going to get silly and make poor judgments. If you're a parent who can't accept that accidents will happen, then you should have either not allowed the get together or you should have kept a much better eye on what was happening.[/quote] I can get on board with this assessment of the situation, but honestly- the complete abdication of responsibility after the accident by the boys is not acceptable. Yes, 11 year olds will get rowdy and screw around and make mistakes. But they should be expected to then CORRECT THEM or at the very bare minimum, APOLOGIZE FOR THEM. To not do either is age inappropriate and a sign of poor upbringing and overall rudeness. [/quote]
