Thank you all very much. I am off to court with my 15 year old. I called 911 and had him taken to a detention center last night. This is very hard for me, but I didn't know what else to do. He attacked my 10 yr old for calling him retarded then when I stepped in to stop him, he choked me. He would not calm down and I felt that this was the only choice that I have. I'll let you know what happened in court when I get back.

Traci, this must be one of the hardest things you have had to do as a good mom.
I realize he is at a difficult age, but thats not a good enough reason for him to attack hes sibling, or hes mom!! Know my thoughts are with you, my heart goes out to you girlfriend.

Oh Traci, I am so sorry you aregoing through this. I think you did the right thing. As a mom, your number one priority is protecting your younger son. I hopeit all works out for you and your older son. I will continue to keep all of you in my prayers.

Oh Traci, I'm so sorry you are having to go through this. I feel you did the right thing. I think the next step would be to have him evaluated and find help for the anger issue. You're in my prayers sweetie...stay strong.

Thanks for all the prayers and thoughts. He is back home. He is on probation and has to go to anger management classes. Hopefully this will help.

I would not want to be a teenager today. No wonder a lot of them are angry, they way the world is now. Makes me sad for all of them.
I'm glad Debbie that he has to take the classes. I really think, with the way the world is not just the outside forces, but the violent video games and music, that anger management should be taught in the schools. Maybe a part of the health class. Sometimes needs to be done to help these young people before it's too late.

Thank you all for thinking of us. The update is.... we were going to make him get a job to pay his own fines, court costs, fees ect... BUT, nowhere in this town will hire at 15... what happened to 15 yr old bagboys? Oh, well,...he is 15 and a half so the day he turns 16 he WILL be getting a job. Until then he is working helping mom out on some wekends and she is giving me the money he earns for his fines.
We were also evicted from our government housing apartment because he now has a criminal charge. You do the right thing and it bites you in the bum... anyway we are searching for a house, but 4 and 5 bedrooms are rare and usually way more than we can handle per month. We found one for $550/mo but the place should be condemned. We may ended up having to take this place. Again thanks to all who are thinking of us.
