Teen Tries to Stab Parents Over Cell Phone

no, the real problem is that these kids aren't learning about God. Everything about God is taken out of the schools. Are you all happy now??????

What a spoiled brat this kid is, and her parents somewhat tolerate this behavior. When you were younger, did the thought even go thru your mind to stab your parents?
This kid needs to be shipped off to one of those discipline camps and get this rage out of her system.
Before she goes, even tho she is 16 y/o, the father should give her a good spanking. But then again, in today's world, she would charge him with assault and he would get locked up.

THE GIRL DOES DESERVE THE STRICTEST PUNISHMENT THERE IS. THAT'S CRAZY GOING FOR KNIVES OVER A CELL PHONE. GEEZ SHE NEEDS TO GET OVER IT AND GROW UP.
BUT THEN IT DOES START WITH THE PARENTS. THAT'S WHERE MOST GO WRONG. IT ALL STARTS AT HOME FIRST.
THE PARENTS AREN'T DOING THEIR JOBS RIGHT.

its obvious these people did not beat this spoiled kids ass enough when she was little. let this be a lesson to all the stupid over indulgent parents who think by buying their kids crap and not disciplining them or by being their friend instead of their parent they are doing a good thing. teens dont need cell phones. this kid has mental health issues if she is threatening her parents with bodily harm over a phone. time to send her to the funny farm

Wow.....several things that I feel I need to say here. First of all, let me address the original article. Without additional information on any mental issues, etc. that this girl may have, I have to say this sounds like the typical spoiled brat kid that is being raised in the majority of households these days, in which the kids run the house. I'm actually surprised the parents even called the police, rather than just giving her phone back. My initial impression is that the parents have allowed her to behave this way for some time, that she had little to no discipline growing up, and that her teachers will also probably report behavior issues.

With that said, I cannot ignore the comments of Warren Garrison on here......I feel sorry for you, sir, to have to go through your life with such hatred inside of you, to not be able to enjoy your own life because you're so fixated on everyone else's. I consider myself to be socially liberal and fiscally conservative, but have never had a problem with disciplining my children, now 21 and 16 years old...and yes, they did get spanked if they needed it. They've both grown to respect others but also to think for themselves, which is a credit to my "liberal" views. I know several VERY conservative parents who allow their children to run around like little heathens, and view discipline as a bad thing, and I fear for what will happen when their children grow up. I have to wonder.....what kind of discipline did YOUR parents use? Were you raised to love others and treat people with respect, or did you grow up under a white sheet?

This is yet another fine example as to why parents SHOULD be allowed to spank their kids without the fear of being jailed for it. These days kids get away with all kinds of things, mainly because the parents can't react to poor behaviour as my parents did when I was young. If I screwed up, my old man would whip off his belt and give me a few good whacks. These days if a parent did that they would be put away for it. I grew up learning respect and dicipline. Had my parents feared the same reprisal as todays parents do, I would probably have ended up in a prison, which is where most kids beling these days... There is no childhood problem that can't be solved by a good old fashioned ass kicking!

kru...please advise how 'knowing your place in the family' is a bad thing? Are you a teen yourself? Or do you believe the Hollywood Hype that teenagers are wiser than their parents? That parents are to be tolerated and exploited while the teen solves problems, learns from mistakes and walks wisely from one 22 minute episode to the next? Do you drive a vehicle? How many steering wheels are on that vehicle? If there is one, how successful will the journey be if someone keeps bumping or grabbing the wheel? If you question the validity of the example, you are more than welcome to have a few boisterous teenagers with cell phones ride around with you with the understanding that it's okay for them to do as they please...let me know how this works out for you?

I think alot of parents need to stop trying to be ther kids Friends and become parents I am extremely close to my children {close enough that when my son had his first kiss he told me] But they also know that me and my husband are boss. I dont feel they should fear me but respect me!

SHUT UP already with the liberals and gays are the problem wih the world. Are you kidding me? Probably kidding just yourself I'd expect. As an educator I'd say it's people who think like you who create the hate in this world.

Naw Annette, you're just upset that I won't let you give 12 year olds condoms and birth control. Rather than abstinance you just want them to be careful. Nope, actually I can imagine your personality to be just like the little girl we're reading about right here. You see, I"m the parent that's trying to make you do the right thing, and you're the childish individual who wants to "DO YOUR THING" in life no matter what the consequences are. In spite of the fact that we know where gonorrhea comes from, still, you have stupid people who are going to screw a sheep and then the rest of the world pays for their "don't tell me nothing" rebellion. Down deep inside you probably have a latent spirit like the many teenagers these days who kill their parents because they aren't allowed to date someone, or get a tattoo. You want to tell me I can't keep a gun in my home to protect me and my family, and yet you don't want me to tell you to get your head out from in between your girlfriends legs, get a boyfriend or husband and start being a part of the solution in this world instead of a part of the problem. You have to understand that even though human beings, and not to be beat or bashed as some would enjoy doing, still homosexuals are like weeds in the garden of life. There are productive and useful plants in this world, and then there are goat heads and kudzu the inflict pain and choke down the more productive plants. When your numbers grow to a point------------reassesssss your thinking.

Too many kids think they are our equals. Too many parents wanting to be their friends or the cool parent. Parents need to pull their heads out of their butts and parent for once. The day my child pulls any kind of weapon on me is the day they die. I kid you not. they better kill me, cus if I can get up they are dead. The day I'm afraid fo my kids is the day they die. That is a promis I had made to myself when I was teen. I grew up in the ghetto and saw how some of my ex-friends turned out and that's when I made the promise. No way in hell, do I deserve to have that kind of retaliation from my children. I do my best to give them everything from love, personal time, to material.

I was a child of the 60's and 70's, and I would have never thought to cuss at my parents, let alone raise a hand to them, God forbid chase them down with a knife. They would have kicked my ass, then turned me over to the cops, and rightfully so. Kids think that they run the show in too many households nowadays. It's no wonder that we have them growing up into the liberal, anti-authority, good-for-nothing little bastards that we read about every day in the paper and see in the news. Should parents be able to beat their children? No. Should they be able to discipline their kids, without fear that "junior" will turn them in to the cops or Child Protective Services? Yes.

I'm now 66 never had kids and from what i see and hear i feel so lucky to not ever had any kids. They all seem very selfish. They are also cruel too and fight, physically with some parents i have heard about. i would want to be dead before i would be on the floor wrestling with my teenage daughter over what she should and should not do. I know of a woman who does this frequently. the father is not in their lives. he pays nothing never has. the mother cleans houses for a living 4 hrs a day and takes care of her own dementia ridden elderly mother age 82 see? I feel lucky...... my mother died when she was 54. i never had kids do you think i am lonely or missing something in life? i don't think i am.. i feel very secure in my own world calm, quiet, never broke, and have a clean house with no phone running off the wall looking for sons or daughters.

Are you kidding me? My mum raised fourteen kids on her own and did not hesitate to knock the stupid off of us if we stepped out of line. And guess what? Not ONE of us have any kind of criminal record. We've all served at least 4 years in the military, and some of us are still in. Three of my brothers even became cops. This "You can't hit your kids" society is going to be our ruin. And we're going to see more and more cases like this. It's pretty scary. You can't tell a kid who doesn't respect/fear you, that they HAVE to do something. Honestly, until I was about fourteen, I feared my mum more than I feared God. She set boundries early, and taught us there would be some serious ramifications for those boundries. A God bless her for loving us enough to do that. I know if *MY* kid ever ran at me with a knife, I would be visiting them later in the hospital. Sure, I would reiterate that I loved them....and then have the "You know that was a really stupid thing to do, right?" conversation with them. How things are now are a joke, and people need to get control of their kids...or we're all screwed as a society.

There is such a thing happened, I feel very sad, and now how the children? Why is it that of their parents? Parents are their children's education to have any problems, or have questions the values of society?

Hi all. Truely raising up children especially during the teenage stage can be a daunting task. They are lovely and enjoy their growing up as you watch.
What I have found is that ounce there are no rules set and no boundaries, everything will go out of the window. The children take it for granted that since you are a loving parent then they do not deserve discipline.I have just read your comments while in the midist of a brawl with my own teenage daughter over breaking rules. I have always used the talk, talk, talk method without viable sunction. Recently we gave her a school task which she had to complete in her leisure, but rules were such that without completing this task she would not be given permission to go out with her friends. I was willing to support her and in fact set sessions when she would ask for assistance. On this occasion she decided to go out with friends after church without letting any of us (myself ans her mum - we had gone to church together) know where she was going. We contacted one of her friend's parents who did not know their and our daughter's where abouts. When she came back home she pretended she was innocent and she did not want to talk about the issue. I decided to take her mobile phone off her. She went ballistic, fell into tantrums and she was very very rude to say the list, shouting, cursing and all. It was such a scene. I was shocked though I tried to keep cool and told her that if she calms down then she had chance to talk about the sunction. She could not show any remorse. I am still bent on not returning her mobile phone until the sunction time expires. I am just hours into the sunction period. Help.
