Goafer Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 So I think I have to go over there and say what's missing or some shit. Don't forget the Faberge egg collection and signed photo of Jesus you kept in your car. Make sure they're accounted for. I imagine they would cost a small fortune to replace.
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 I would suggest going over and see what the mum says first, it might be that she will settle things with you in a nice manner - offer to refund everything etc, before getting the police involved. This is why kids are little shits these days, because their parents bail them out when they're young so they think they are untouchable in future.

You don't know that's the case. She may give ReZ the money as the kids don't have any, but she could then punish them. Besides that's not the reason kids are shits, it's because their parents don't give a damn. They don't set a good example or discipline their kids. This woman is showing that damages need to be paid for. A lot of parents would tell ReZ to get lost.
Cube Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 (edited) Back from holiday and now I have food poisoning. Urgh... Edit: I think that's all of it now. Edited August 21, 2011 by Cube

This woman is showing that damages need to be paid for. A lot of parents would tell ReZ to get lost. Of course she would have to pay as they've got no money. The fact that the kids behaved like this shows some degree of bad parenting/not giving a damn/lack of discipline. An outside influence (a cop warning them) could be the kick up the arse they need. It worked for me anyway.
ReZourceman Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Lol Cube. Yeah I went over there with a list of teh mizzing shit. (She pointed out two more that were missing so she said she'd add them to teh list). She was extremely reasonable. She was actually crying. Saying how embarrassed she was and how she/her kids are "Raised up and not dragged up", and that whenever her son hangs out with the other kids (the ones who live next door) that he gets in trouble. She said he is grounded etc and got him to apologise. Have not heard a peep from next door yet which shows their classyness. Debating whether to go over tomorrow for an apology or whatever/make sure that they are contributing money/whatever to the missing items aswell as they sound and seem like the cuntier ones.
S.C.G Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Back from holiday and now I have food poisoning. Urgh... Edit: I think that's all of it now. Welcome back Who did the cooking or rather in this case didn't but 'tried' to? :/

Go over, from what it seems the one you spoke to doesn't get on with the parents of the other one so might not even talk to them about it. You have nothing to lose.
nightwolf Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 This is why kids are little shits these days, because their parents bail them out when they're young so they think they are untouchable in future. I think you'll find they did that when we were kids too. I vaguely remember one of my friends accidentally breaking someone's window, it was sorted out much the same way. a parent cannot be in control of their children whilst they are out 100% of the time without being overbearing, she might actually be incredibly nice about it all, give a chance will you? As Rez proved they aren't all bad parents!
Ganepark32 Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Urgh... not feeling great. Stomach is feeling a little iffy, right knee is killing me and I've not been getting much sleep. Feeling quite stressed at the moment, as well as rather angry at the parents, and it's certainly not helping as there have been a few chest pains today. Think a trip to the doctor is in order then. Wouldn't be surprised to find out I have some form of heart problem as my father does, and a few people on his side of the family do too. *sigh* Bed all day tomorrow it is then.
Raining_again Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 on the way home I saw a poor roadkilled cat lying on the road
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 (edited) I vaguely remember one of my friends accidentally breaking someone's window, it was sorted out much the same way. Naturally it depends on all the circumstances, but how did your friend turn out? she might actually be incredibly nice about it all That's not the point here. Edited August 21, 2011 by EEVILMURRAY
heroicjanitor Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Messed up my sleeping pattern over the weekend again, so I am lying awake now. Read a book chapter and browsed this so should sleep soon, not long until work though
Ellmeister Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 My charger just went snap, crackle and then pop. Now it doesn't work and has left a small burn mark in my carpet I think the wire was bent when I turned it on. What a crappy start.
nightwolf Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Naturally it depends on all the circumstances, but how did your friend turn out? That's not the point here. Perfectly fine, not every kid who was a bit of an idiot turns out bad. Be a bit more optimistic.
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Perfectly fine, not every kid who was a bit of an idiot turns out bad. Be a bit more optimistic. I'm well optimistic, but not too much. Then I'll never be disappointed. It's probably a combination of these young rioters and my law studies focusing on child chastisement which has brought this on. Anyways... It seems my brother has regained the password for the laptop and removed the awesome picture I had of him. Spoke to MUM about the whole aspect of negative reinforcement but she seems deaf to the concept... Ah well... I'll just upload it myself and tag aload of his friends. It's genius.
ReZourceman Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Someone at Claire's work....literally like....the worst story ever (over hyped) but...just awful. This started four weeks ago. - Her husband starts being a dick out of nowhere. - They start talking about divorce. - In retaliation he takes the kids for a weekend, not telling her where he was taking them. - He starts stealing her stuff. - Her aunt dies. - Her cat dies. - Her "husband" goes to hospital for epic liver failure - Her "husband" dies. Literally all in 4 weeks. :/
Wesley Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 On the bright side, that problem solved itself? Pretty awful in reality, shouldn't joke about it ReZ... I forgot to go to the gym because I was too busy trying to buy the TouchPad. Fuckin' neeeeeeeeeerd.
Happenstance Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Gotta feel for that woman havent you, terrible four weeks. Shame they didnt see more symptoms of the liver failure apart from the personality change, not something you would associate with it unless you already knew.
ReZourceman Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Oh I see, thats a symptom of that eh? I didn't even realise (well I associated them in different ways) but wow.
Happenstance Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Yeah apparently its something to do with the blood no longer having the toxins removed from it and they all pool in the brain
nightwolf Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Christ, I know I have some bad months, but I don't think anything tops that yet!
