So you have taught this 10 year old kid what?
1. His Dad is a lush, loser, and a bad gambler? Like the kid doesn't know that already and more than likely will follow the same exact footsteps?
2. That the best resort to reacting to anger is to ''pop someone in the mouth as hard as one can''? Great mentoring dude!
3. That going to jail has no consequences since ''Mommy'' can get someone out and that anyone can get off Scott free after committing assault and battery?
4. That this nice wonderful man that gave him the free RC Car is now know for his uncontrolled rage and that if he gets mad at some kid, he might just go off the handle and hit him too?
5. The kid is a MINOR by law, and whatever you ''gave him'' is by law, under the custody and control of his parents until the child reaches legal age. His father has any and every right to do whatever he wants with the car since you forfeited ownership the second you handed it over.
6. The obvious lesson here is that there are two juveniles in this story that need to grow up.
Gee, you should have no problem counseling kids in an uber liberal school for wussies.
