Default Re: Meanest mom on the planet...

As I said, she laid down the rules long in advance, it's not like it was a decision she made on a whim.

Second, he's 19, in many states, if not all of them, that makes you an adult under the court system. If he were pulled over he'd be cited for the offense. If he were to take a swing at someone he'd be arrested. If he were to react as you suggested you might, he'd be arrest for destruction of personal property and face whatever consequences apply. He's an adult now, and flagging on his responsibility doesn't merit leniency. The only reason he has to put up with his mom's rules at all is that he still lives with her and is therefore under her jurisdiction.
