My inner wild child still remembers some of my most effective moves, shoots an expert revolver and was a designated marksman. That’s who I was 42 years ago. Not anymore. I served hard, played hard, worked hard for the entire time and I have been a professional medical patient for that long as well. The doctors have repeatedly told me that I wore my body out.

Sometimes all it takes is to show them that their behavior is going to start a fight and that they are extremely outnumbered.

Don't stick screens in front of him, read to him, guide him, talk to him, and listen to him when the time comes he can talk. Its the hardest job in the world and it never stops but if you follow some basic tenants you can give society a strong man and contributor! Lastly, if you aren't willing to raise your son and parent him, the state and system are ready and willing to indoctrinate him free of charge! Some scary shit out there so be present and always alert to what he is exposed to outside of the home. Congrats on becoming a Dad! It's the greatest!

You must do you best as a parent and that has nothing to do with their wants. Educate yourself on everything your child may go through and guide them down what YOU believe is the best path. To follow the previous example: maybe you have a doc you trust, maybe you don't. Assume you don't. Make them earn it. Some things you don't get a second chance on.

    You nailed it John! Hated but wanted. That is EXACTLY true. My wife and I were coming into the city, post my Army retirement, from the ranch. We happened upon an accident. Single car, side of the road, it had rolled several times. Cause? Unknown. People had stopped. Nobody was "doing" a damn thing. Nobody was in charge. LEOs or Paramedics, not on scene. Rural location, that would come but it takes a while to get there. My wife and I went to work. I assessed, two people, seat belted in, car was upright, both conscious. Long story short, We got them out, had my aid bag in the truck, treated them within my capabilities. The wife had spoken to 911 with exacting detail on location, situation, outstanding report. Interfaced with paramedics and LEOs. Nobody died. The lollygaggers / spectators / do nothing NPCs? These would be the same people giving me crap for not wearing a mask in the grocery store. They are quick to condemn, but retardedly slow to respond or assist in time of need. They have ZERO leadership ability and only have hiveminds and take all commands from the queen.

    The giant bag of snacks thing made me laugh and brought back a memory. A day after my self-defense shooting in 2018 (drunk/high neighbor decided to beat his girlfriend to death outside, I stopped him, he came after me, I shot and killed him) I came home to find a letter taped to my apartment door. Opened it up and inside was a nice note that said 'Thank you for looking out for your neighbors, have dinner on us!' and included was a $50 Red Lobster gift card. Anyway, good job on looking out, It's always good to look after others, and I hope that kid gets the help he needs. "This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters." - 1 John 3:16. (That verse means a lot more to me now than it did before the shooting)

    I had a similar experience where this dude kept initiating unwanted physical contact especially with the young women in my college class. His behavior kept escalating until I got in his way, and he got physical with me. He wasn't much of a fighter and I pretty quickly had his back and got a rear naked choke in deep. I regulated pressure to keep him awake but told him in my calmest voice that he will treat me, and everyone else here with respect. I told him to tap my forearm if he understood, he did and I let him go..... right as the professor walked in. The professor, a Hungarian immigrant, looked at him and and me and said in his thick accent "don't kill him", and began preparing for class like we weren't there. After the incident me and the guy were on friendly terms, and he managed to keep his hands to himself. I also didn't get arrested, which was cool.
