Well, it dosen't take long for all the benefits of a wholesome trip away to disappear from the mind of a 14 year old who lives perpetually in the moment. Sometimes I just think he's a complete product of the age - a flaccid and un-creative CONSUMER, just born to consume and that is all. t just seems like in his mind this is how the world works::: the world is supposed to just come to you and you are ENTITLED to all its fruits as some sort of bio-physical birth-right or some such nonsense..and ANY activity which involves any sort of interest or consideration of those other than himself he makes out to be these absolute desecration of his rights as a resident of his country - the COUCH (with packet of chips, coke and laptop)
AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH

I don't know. Is this how the powers that be want this generation ?? ? Are they indeed the product of the media's commercial / mental assault? Is it a chemical thing???

Also - he's been bunking school, dosen't seem to give a F*** about anything....and his mother is going to try and make sure he goes to school this year come hell or high water (today she took him to the cop station to 'introduce him' to the truancy officer) and it just FILLS ME WITH DREAD to think of the FIGHTS that are gonna happen this year because Z is absolutley pig-headed and has deep anger issues and who know when he'll lose it.. . Our house is so small, I don't even have my own truely set aside space becuase there's only two bedrooms,,,,and Z dosen't even USE his bedroom - he just sits out in the lounge..I have to go out or withdraw to my (our) room....
