The whole way he dealed with it was PATHETIC.

There was no punishment required. A good parent wouldnt sell something they knew the child wanted so much, humiliate them in the process and just come off as an ignorant fool, which he is. A good parent would sit the child down, and TALK. They'd bother doing some REAL research. They'd either compromise OR set down house rules. Yeah, the kids only 15, but do you think this will change his mind? All it would have done is pissed him right fucking off. He hasnt learnt anything. Talking about the consequences, and risks, and TALKING to the child like an adult will do the trick.

Your just as bad as him.

:S4: Spin on that! :thumbsup:
