I had a female friend who threw a chair at a teacher once in class...she turned out ok a few years later. Not so good grades, but did really well in gym :P

My husband just retired from the military after 20 years. Let me tell you, he is the ONLY one in his family with a good head on his shoulders, manners, a conscience, discipline, work ethics. He said the military probably saved his life, or he would have ended up like the rest of his family, drug addicted crooks, his younger brother recently died from a drug overdose. Don't diss the military, it has helped a LOT of people get their lives back on track. I'm pretty sure my son will eventually go to military school, because that is exactly what he needs, unless he makes a complete turnaround.
He gets plenty of love from us, but apparently that's not enough, or maybe even the problem. It's time for some tough love.
