FLKING, I am really glad you were able to make a difference in that child's life. That is really beautiful.
Thanks smlwonderdst. You know right off the bat, I blamed his mother for allowing him act the way he did. But in these 5 years, I have learned that he has gone through some rough times. His mother explained that he started acting this way after she and his father divorced. He is the only child and the family is pretty well off, but I guess the dad puts a dollar sign where he should put his heart. Since then his grandfather passed and he does not have a male figure in his life right now. I told him mom she should get him into a mentoring program. Jacob has come a LONG way. Every now and then he does the "teenage" thing, but it is not to the extent of him having to make a trip downtown. He is starting to notice girls now
so we are dealing with that. LOL He even asked me to Homecoming which is this weekend. I will not be able to make the game, but his mom is giving him a surprise party after the dance that will make him the most popular guy in the school. I am sure he will be surprised when I show up at 12:00 am to ask him to dance. Can somebody call me and wake me up? It has been a long time since I have tried to party with the young crowd
