[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you guys see the Daily Mail exclusive? The young man was employed at a local diner last year -- and was caught on security footage collapsing and banging his head on a table:

Substance abuse? Possible head injury or concussion from the fall? Very concerning and I wonder if he was having annual physicals? Perhaps there was an underlying organic issue of some kind going on. His coworker sounded very kind and  concerned. [/quote]

He and his brother were doing weed in the back room. Mother didn't care when called - she told the store manager he just happened eaten that day.[/quote]

Negligent parents, they deserve everything coming their way.[/quote]

And he told the manager that it was his dad who gave him the weed![/quote]

To clarify-- his older brother, Eli, said that to the manager. The weed incident was prior to the of this video, where he falls down.

Pot doesn't make you stumble around like that, though, right? So the weed incident is just another indicator of what kind of parents they were. This stumbling and fall must have been caused by something else. Alcohol? But if Ethan were drunk, seems like that other employee would recognize it and react a little differently.

he might be medicated (with wrong dose), or possibly high.[/quote]

I'm concerned this is the case of an Aspie child who was never evaluated or taught appropriately, as I've done all these years with my Aspie kid, and who doesn't know when, how and most importantly, to what degree, to express symptoms and feelings. Aspies often over-react or under-react to physical injury and abusive behavior (teasing, bullying) because they don't have a handy and instinctual graduated guide in their head to tell them what the appropriate response is. I've seen it time and time again with my husband and son, who are both high-functioning autistic. The immense majority of people with Asperger's are not and will never be physically violent, but for the minuscule subset that can be brought to violence, buying them a gun and ignoring their need for behavioral modification and specialized teaching can lead to lethal outcomes.

This seems likely.  Combined with bullying and it makes perfect sense.[/quote]

Even if true, school responses to threats of violence will need to involve administration and a security officer.[/quote]

But they do not.  And parents like these only amp up the "retaliation theories", whether the bullying is real, or imagined (by the parents).

The parents need to raise their kids. Period. This kid should have been taken out of this house by CPS, long ago. Not sure if that would have helped the situation, but it could not have made it any worse, seeing who was (not) raising him.
