To think this is an own goal

[gingerchaos]

Ds, 16 early next month, came with me to take the rubbish from the rabbits to the dump. He refused to get out of the car and help because there is a sign saying children under 16 have to stay in the car but the staff there aren't bothered, pointing out before it mainly applies to younger children rather than 6 foot 3 teenagers. We are now home and he wants to go on Call of Duty that MIL gave him for an early birthday present, we didn't know she was buying it for him and he didn't ask for it as we say no to overage games. I refused (mainly to prove a point) because if he's not able to help at the dump due to not being 16 then he certainly can't play an 18.

I think he's scored a bit of an own goal there

Haha that's great! Well done you.

Lol, I think he might quickly regret his reasoning!! I think I'd ha e done the same as you though!

r'spect! 🤛🏻😂

This is definitely something I would have done too. I would also find a chore for him to do in order to win back the game if he doesn't fancy waiting 2+ years until he's 18 😁

I remember a few years ago on a bus, it stopped for a young girl who had to be asked to extinguish her cigarette before she got on, and then she asked for a half.
Bus driver, turned the bus off, and said clearly. "Either you're under 16, in which case I will give you a half-fare, however I will then radio for the police because you shouldn't be smoking. Or you're over 16 and need to pay full fare."
She paid full fare, but face would have curdled milk. I think she probably was quite well over 16, suspect around age 20, and I think the driver knew it.
