RE: Every Child Deserves An Enabling Mother

posted by on October 12 at 12:03 PM

Speaking of really good parenting the homepage to Tallahassee, FL (wtf?!) brings us this heartwarming story of a mother who is making sure to teach her children useful life skills before sending them off into the world:

“A 43-year-old woman has been charged with a felony after prosecutors said she helped her son make pipe bombs in her home.”

I guess “useful life skills” is subjective and if your son is already on probation at sixteen, you have to be realistic about exactly which skills are going to get him that coveted fast food job.

This really isn't very news worthy, I'm sure lots of parents teach their kids how to make bombs, shoot guns, and hate people who aren't white. The only difference with this is that she got caught.
