He worked on it while at his day program. I'm confused what ur asking about him telling my mom... I think when he said something he kinda what o no lol. I refused to spend time with him for quite a while beforehand because he was acting like a jerk but when I finally did decide to give him another chance it was just like we left off minus the jerk part. He said he had been praying to his deceased father that we could atleast talk and give the relationship another try.... I made a big mistake about telling my Dad about some stuff my mom heard about him. She heard Joey was a sexual deviant and how he was just obsessed with getting women pregnant and used his seizures as an excuse to touch womens breasts and what not. I have not seen this but was feeling angry at the time and told him this which I guess is really a rumor but when I told my dad about that he had been around and about the gift, he says he's a good one to stay away from
