KIDS!!! Angry venting!!
If you don't have kids - stop reading now - this is a mother venting!
I am livid!!!! I have never been so angry in my life!!!!
Ryan lied to me - for the first time (and what will certainly be his last time!) he didn't tell the truth. At 15, I should be prepared for little lies, and I am. . . But, this one was a whopper.
Ryan told us he had to stay at Tony's last night. They had to finish the English report they were working on for summer school. Tony's Mom would get them to school - (I should have been suspicious and called her when he mentioned she was making pancakes for Breakfast) I believed him and let him go. Ryan called at 9 pm to say goodnight. That was the last time I heard from him.
He never went to Tony's. At three yesterday afternoon he left with some older kids to go to a skate competition 6 hours from here. I found out because the English teacher called to say he didn't show up for class.
I spent the next 4 hours trying to track him down! I called everyone I could until I finally found a kid that was willing to tell the truth -( and the kid told only because I threated to tell his Mother that he had stolen a pack of cigarettes from me!)
Damn kids! Ryan is still 4 hours drive from here in Kankakee, Illinois but, he's on the way home. Once he gets here first I'll kiss him because I'll be so relived to see him - then I'm grounding him until he's 37 years old!!
He went to this street skate comp to make us money (- there was a $1,000.00 purse for the winner) and he didn't think his lie would be caught. And when he came home with $1,000.00 he thought I'd be too happy to be mad at him.
WRONG! What the hell was he thinking!!!
- The guys that took him to the competition are both over 18 - and right now, I'd like to charge them with everything from kidnapping to taking a juvenile over State lines. I intend to give them both whatever piece of my mind is left when they get here! but, I won't ruin thier lives by calling the police -
I can't believe my son did this to me! The anxiety, and fear I felt at first, when I first realized he was gone, is nothing compared to the anger I feel now.
His beautiful $400.00 "razors" - (his skates) - are mine for a least two weeks. And I've just locked him out of the computer. I wish he wasn't almost two feet taller than me - because this kid deserves a spanking!!! I'm not an advocate for violence but, Ryan needs a butt kicking right now!!!
I AM SO MAD! and I'm a Mom - so when he's fast asleep tonight, I'll look at his angel face and just Thank God he's home and he's safe.
Ok, I'm calmer now - Ryan should thank his lucky stars I have a Blog.
