First how is a CHILD who is developmentally challneged out without supervision? Why would you even think about having alcohol in the house if you feel your 15 YEAR OLD CHILD is drinking? Why would you ever force a CHILD especially one that is developmentally challenged to drink a case of beer?
To me it seems you have way more issues then this child | I was told giving him a lot of it would get it out of his system. It don't matter that he's challenged, giving him a lot would still make his stomach hurt. His stomach isnt the thing that has the problem, it's his head.
I'm sure he's out with a friend or whatever. He always does it. I just don't know what to do. I was thinking about calling one of them TV shows about helping... I just don't know if Maury still does family interventions.
Do any of you know if there are any government programs that could help? With all the liberals in our government, I would think something would be out there.

Children: Nichole | Re: Need help with my sons drinking | | I am sorry if I sound rude, I don' t mean it at all. But I think you seriously need to think about what is going and grab hold of this child NOW!! Even if nothing was wrong with him, forcing him to do something that could potentially kill him is dangerous. Kids have died of alcohol poisoning on less alcohol then you forced him to drink. What would have happened if he passed out, or went to bed after drinking and died? Would that have been the ending you were looking for? I doubt that. I think you are on the right track saying you need help. Where to find that help I do not know, but please do it for the sake of your son and your whole fmaily. |

Children: 1 3-year-old boy | Re: Need help with my sons drinking | | Perhaps the reason she was laughing is that your post smacks of somebody faking it and writing a post simply to get a rise out of people. Kind of supported by the fact that you only have 5 posts (nothing wrong with being new - I am too), but the type of parent who would have those kinds of parenting ideas is not the type to frequent a forum like this.
Have to point out, you lost a big of your "ignorant" persona and the frequent spelling errors by your last post. Stay in character, man! |

I'm so upset. This all started when his mom thought it would be a good idea to let him sip are drinks from a young age. At first I thought it was cool to grab a beer and have a cold one with the little guy... but things have just gotten out of control.
I swear, when he gets back home, I'm going to get my belt and give him the biggest whooping he's ever gotten.
He's been taking all my beers and I can't afford to be spending my money on him. Just last week the bastard took my 40 that I was saving.
I will check out that netsite you sent me. I hope it can answer some of my questions... I just dont know what I'm doing wrong.

Wow.  I'd look to yourself for the cause of the problem. I'd drink, too, if my dad called me a little bastard and gave me access to the alcohol.

I already said I came here for advice, and if you're not going to help GO AWAY. You remind me of the boys mom, she always was judgmental... and she did nothing to help... just like you! Quote:

I'm not an idiot... no matter what "budnkota" will say... what the hell is a "budnkota" anyway? Is that some lame teenager slang for marijuana grown in North Dakota or something infantile like that?
Are any of you really parents? If you are, you would be able to relate to me...
The bible does say "judge not lest ye be judged". How about following the bible more often? Quote:

Wont one of you please stop with the judgementalness and help?

I do believe this is giving him access.

-Hoss | Yeah cause "sitting down and having a beer with the little guy" is responsible. |
