Sign in to disble this ad
A little over 5 hours ago one of my neighbours kids shows up at my house because his parents aren't home yet, so I let him in because it was raining and because I felt bad for the kid (12) being locked out of his house.
His parents aren't home yet, and I haven't been able to reach them anywhere. Normally I wouldn't have a problem letting someone crash in one of the extra beds, or even getting him to school in the morning if his parents still aren't home, but this kid is getting to be too much to handle. After I let him in he demanded that I make him dinner, then complained because it wasn't what he wanted. Since then hes been prying into everything. Hasn't broken anything yet, but he's made a pretty big mess.
Hopefully his parents come home soon, but if they don't, I'm considering booting the kid and trying to get him back into his house somehow (not option #1 under normal circumstances, but I can see him getting further out of control if I try to get him to sleep). Any ideas, or should I just tough it out until his parents come home?

Although if his parents show up and see him duct taped from head to toe strapped to a chair...

He's lactose intolerant, so the milk thing was actually beneficial to his health...dammit. Although I guess I could beat him with the milk.

2. Curse when your bag falls out of the pitcher.
3. Stick the bag over the kids head.
4. Wrap with caribou sinew to form a tie around his neck.
5. ???
6. PROFIT!

They had hired a babysitter, but since nobody was home to let her in, she ended up leaving. I ended up getting an apology for his behaviour and $50  , sweet.
