What would be funny would be for the kid to get his friends to all chip in and win the auction, then give him the PS2 back. 🙂 Serves the kid right though. I would have never thought to sell my kids stuff like that, but it should certainly welcome the kid to the real world.

Then the dad would just sell it again. I know I would. Now friends have no money and I still don't have a PS2. Dad: 2 Turd son: 0.
 
Eh, I don't deny the kid needs to be punished, but it's funny how the "parent" is obsessing more about the monetary damage of his son's actions than the dishonesty and plain stupidity of them.

I'd say it's all BS, anyway.

You're telling me you never went to a skating rink or the mall when you were 13 without your parent? I feel sorry for you.

I most certainly was not dropped off at the skating rink/mall EVERY SATURDAY night while my parents went off doing who knows what until 11:30PM.
 
buy the fake auction and return a broken PS2 saying *his son* must have broke it like the bugle slide.

🙂
 
there are a number of hideous errors in the text...which sort of backs up the idea that it is a fake story.
 
Lets back up one night. That was the tip of the iceberg. Saturday night I send my son & his friend to the skating rink like the rest of the parents. I was to pick him up from the skating rink after it ended. Well he went home, while I was not there with his friend and they invited someone I do not know to the house while WE were not there. I get home about 11:30 PM and find the house is wrecked. Beer was missing. Confronted son and friends about beer?Yes they had drank the beer. -$6.00 Strike one!

So its about cost ?
 
That?s right my 13 year old son drank a bottle of Dom Perignon champagne- 1995. PUT IT BACK IN THE FRIDGE WITH PART OF A CORK AND THE LITTLE METAL THING BACK ON TOP! -$120.00.

LOL! Ouch.
