BTW...how is Scott acting now?
For all others...I do not condone beating your children, but a swift, punishment after a poor action of theirs should always be followed through with. Threats don't work, talking it out doesn't always work. You have to do something explosive at times to get their attention.

Thank you plinville...and my best to your wife, too.
Scott has had his issues over the years...I adopted him following the "formidiable years" (which I believe are from 2-6)...he has quite a bit of his mother's father in his spirit and that in itself is more than any kid should be subjected too...he was a handful in certain aspects...after he turned 18, he had to "learn the hard way" that everything that seems to be fun still has consequences that need to be addressed...and I'll leave it at that...
The amazing part? He's still alive and he still comes over and visits...and we have 4 Gsons from his exploits...they're a gas...just sugar them up and send them home to the right moms (yep, two moms...
). I'm just happy I remember the names and the birthdays all match to who I'm thinking about!
And I haven't sent any Gson home to the wrong mom...I'll let daddy blow that one!
