Angry teen turns mom in for growing pot - YJCMTSU
2008-04-07
NORTH KITSAP - A 14-year-old boy upset that his mother threatened to send him to military school for skipping class turned her in Thursday for growing marijuana.

A Kitsap County deputy went to the residence on the 6400 block of NE Silver Springs Lane after the boy called 911 emergency dispatchers and said his mother was growing marijuana, reports said. At the house, the boy told the deputy he was angry that his mother was trying to discipline him for skipping class and talking back, "and he decided to tell on his mother," the report said.

At first, the 34-year-old woman said she only smoked marijuana. She declined to let the deputy search her house further without a warrant, then changed her mind. "What the heck, you don't need a warrant. I'll show you," the deputy quoted the woman as saying.

In her closet, the deputy found 10 small marijuana plants. The woman said she was growing them for personal use. She also told the deputy "it is tough to get her son to respect authority when he knows she breaks the law growing pot," the report said.

The son said he was concerned that he got his mother in trouble. But, as the deputy noted, "all he wanted was for her to get the message and do the right thing," the report said.

The woman was cooperative, the deputy wrote, and was not arrested. A report was forward to Kitsap County prosecutors, WestNET and Child Protective Services.

LOL. Good one, deputy.

#4  Sounds like the kid's moral sense is surprisingly well-developed, considering he's being raised by a stoner.

"it is tough to get her son to respect authority when he knows she breaks the law growing pot,"

So, that's what a genius' mind at work looks like.
