drive it like you stole it.
I'm about to implode here at the moment, I need to rant, ignore me if you wish.
Our oldest wee boy got a phone call from a friend shortly after he got in from school. He asked if he could go out, asked him if he had homework and he said no so I let him go.
He come home with a friend a short time after and asked for help as his friend/ex girlfriend (its all so complicated these days) had passed out because she was drunk.
Went down to the football field, there was was, laying on the grass, shaking, unconcious. There was a few of them there but only another one who had been drinking, the rest, including my boy had been called to help.
I had to phone an ambulance as she was apparently unconcious for around two hours. I then used the wee girls phone and phoned her mother who was greatful I phoned and was going to go straight to the hospital as the paramedics were there at that stage.
The other girl who was also drunk had took off up to her house to "get her things" and didn't appear. She's a wrong un, my boy doesn't hang about with her as she's always getting drunk, is 14, smokes and does worse too.
All was fine, came home and finished making dinner. A knock came to the door around 8pm and it was the father of the girl admitted to hospital. Started spouting off that I got her the drink and he couldn't expect anything less of "young father who is covered in tattoos" that he was also "going to the police" blah blah blah.
I did have to stop him and say I don't drink, that the other girl who was along with her had got the drink from somewhere, pointed him in the direction of their house and explained he may not get a warm welcome there.
Then he proceeds to tell me I'm nothing only scum, my children are scum, my girlfriends scum and kicked my car walking away. Nice fella eh?
I had to stop him as he walked to his car and explain that me, nor my family are scum, if it wasn't for myself or my son his wee girl could well be dead, that my son went down there to help after his daughter had got drunk, that she didn't go to school today and what kind of parents were they when they don't know the friends they keep, don't bother about looking for their children after they don't come home from school and that whilst I may be covered in tattoos that has nothing to do with my morales, the way I bring my children up or how I treat others. I had to throw in too that while me and my girlfriend were very young when we had our first boy, we're still together 14 years later, put our children first before everything and push them to do well in their education.
I also said he would be paying for the dent he made in the rear pannel of my car. He said, for me to prove that it was him, I did feel a little smug when I pointed up at our CCTV camera and said there's was my proof.
I know the parents may not be any way responsible for her daughters behaviour but I wanted to hurt him, make him feel bad, like he was trying to do with me. Tit for tat I know but hey, it was my home he was coming to. I also know that I've grown up quite a lot as I didn't resort to punching him goodlooking like I would have done a few years ago (that's not to say I'd have won by the way)
Anyway, their brat is out of hospital. I've praised my boy for being so responsible and doing the correct thing and he has also said he won't be hanging about with her again.
So proud of him.

) have (in the words of one of my teachers) "spent the whole of their time at school strutting around like complete tools". And now my year (10) are trying to do the same. It's funny, my year was well known to be the best year in my school, but it's gone really down hill. There are some kids who used to be ok, but now they are 'hard'. One kid started on me today, he's about 5' tall and quite fat. Not boasting or anything, but I'm 5'10" and am into rugby and running, so I don't think he would have stood much of a chance if he hadn't of walked off. But they all think they are 'solid', so 'ya don't wanna mess wiv these kids'.
