What he really needs is some prayer

Well, my MMBB got off pretty easy yet again.  Being the worry wort that I am, I was concerned that he may get his ass sent to juvie, but I was wrong.  Instead he got 6 months court supervision, 80 hours of community service and a monitory fine.  If this – along with his expulsion – doesn’t make him truly realize that his past will continue to haunt him until he himself straightens up, I don’t know what will.

I will continue to be here for him, but I will not support anymore ill behavior.  He knows this though as I’ve *never* supported or enabled any ill behavior.  Unfortunately, the people with whom he lives with have supported and enabled him to act like a hoodlum which is why he’s gotten his ass into so much trouble; he’s lived the past 2 years without any real consequences.

Anyway, that’s that.

Daddio and I were talking over the weekend about what to get everyone for Christmas gifts and Daddio said he would get MMBB a gift card to Old Navy or something and CB chimed in that what he really needs is some prayer.

Ha.  I laughed out loud.  Mainly cuz it’s true eh.  I love that boy with all my being, but my love isn’t what will carry him through the next stage in life.
