Last night one of our students stabbed his sister in the neck with a pencil while screaming, "You fucking cunt whore bitch! Why do you always have to be better than me?" While I can commiserate with the sentiment and desire to stab one's sister in the neck, it'll be sad to see him go to lockup (again).
I saw this about to happen ever since a couple weeks ago; Older Sister told me that Mom sat down with her and Younger Brother and told her, "I know sometimes it feels like you're being ignored, but your brother needs more of my time and attention because he's more likely to go to jail. You'll just have to parent yourself until we get him straightened out."
Parenting lesson for today: Tell a kid they'll end up in jail, and they inevitably will.

What they said.

Yeah, plus you'd have the awesome tattoo sneaking into the picture, ruining the whole fucked up effect. An effect which might have even been amplified by this story.
