QuoteBOSTON, Dec. 22 (UPI) -- A Boston mother said her frustration at her 14-year-old son's late night video game playing led her to call police emergency for help in speaking to him.
Angela Mejia, 49, said she has been concerned about the amount of time her 14-year-old son spends playing games in the violent "Grand Theft Auto" series and her frustration reached a head when she found him playing at 2:30 a.m. Saturday, hours after he had been instructed to go to bed, the Boston Herald reported Tuesday.
"I woke up in the middle of the night and saw the light on in his bedroom," she said.
Mejia said she and her son engaged in an argument that culminated with her unplugging his PlayStation and calling 911.
"I called (police) because if you don't respect your mother, what are you going to do in your life?" she said.
The mother said police officers responded and were able to convince her son to call it a night.
"They (police) were just like, 'Chill out. Go to bed,'" the boy said.
Are you having trouble controlling your kids?
Rebellious teens?
You need...The Family Police! In the 5 minutes they're there, your kids will have the most respectful behavior ever!
Call 911, that number is 911. CALL TODAY.
Wow. It took cops to convince the boy to go to bed? :|
I feel sorry for her.
inb4 mentally ill soccer mom blames GTA on this
What a intercourse ing waste of a police force.
What a intercourse ing horrible parent.
It's after reading stories like this when I feel like giving up on our world.
She should have been fined.
My mom would have kicked my ass so hard I'd have to either go to bed or die.
That's what you get for putting the videogames in the son's room.
She should have totally been fined for that. You don't call 911 unless it's an actual emergency, how intercourse ing stupid that she called, and that that police even came is even more retarded.
But, if his mom told him to go to bed, he should have gone to bed. But instead he chose to be a little dick about it.
Send that mom to jail for being a intercourse ing vagina-y and calling 911 just because she couldn't handle her darn 14-year-old son on her own.
