My son MIGHT be made to read this, along with his friend tonight/tomorrow once I edit after answers. So they can see the my logic when things don't go well. Please don't quote the OP.
Long story short, the boy lets my son and another boy into his house without permission. He climbs thru the window because the mother will not give son key. Mother gets upset as she comes home to three 13 Y.O's in the house without permission. Boy and mother gets into argument. Boy hits mother. Mother calls police. Police come over. Police make the boy leave the house. (Yeah, I know. WTF) The OTHER boys mother picks up all three kids, and brings them to my house.
The 2nd mother is irate because when she arrives the police are there, and she can't believe her son would hang with such a child. /eyeroll. She explains the situation, and wants to know if the boy who hits mother can stay with me. Of course he can.
I obviously talk to the boy. Punch him in the chest. Tell him that his mother felt as helpless as he does now. How does it feel. I go see his mother so she knows where her son is. Give my name/number/address. She refuses to have her son stay with her. I wasn't expecting this. Tell her he can stay the weekend, but please make arrangements for the boy to stay somewhere.
The boys has zero males in his life from all the conversations I have had the last couple hours. There is like a zero chance the mother will make arrangements for the boy. They are a "poor" family from what I can tell of the neighborhood, and the state of the home. (I'm guessing here)
Two problems. I REALLY am in no mood to be this boy surrogate father. I need something to say that MIGHT get thru to him and make him understand. I also don't want my son influenced by this boy. Though I think my son is smart/mature enough to get it. He seems to thus far. Do I tell my son stay away from this kid? Or let my son rub off on him.
Come Monday, if the boy is still with me...what are my options? Be realistic. I will make several attempts to speak with the mother to allow the boy home...but that might not happen.
Thoughts guys?
