My opinion on this situation, I was raised in a single parent home by my mother, obviously being raised as a male in the 80's with no internet doesn't compare to this situation. I got my first real ass whoopin at 14 for takin my moms car for a joyride. She dragged my ass from the living room to the kitchen beatin my ass. I guess I'm old school but when I stepped outta line I fully expected to get my my ass handed to me. There was no such thing as kids calling CPS on their parent. To me that shit is crazy. I have a young son and I've made it clear to his mom that if he gets outta line when he's older I will put him in his place, but that's just me and how I was raised.
