Do something with him. Take a week off and travel with him, or hang out, or build something. Play cards and reminisce. Get a new board game like pandemic. He sounds like a smart guy. There is a great card game called 'cold war' for two players. Or get the new x-wing mini game.
When I am 90, I want my kids to find two 45 year old women..and send me their daughters!
"The age of the average gamer is around 35. " that a pretty irrelevant statement, but it has the bonus of being wrong. The average age of a game purchaser is 35, not gamer.
There are many site the cater to younger people. Guess where people looking to groom and then rape children go to?
What people on slashdot can not seem to grok is that pedophiles and child rapist plan, and almost always repeat their behavior. This is why when ever one gets caught, there is always many children that had raped prior.
no, that isn't worse then some one peeing in public being on the same list as people who rape children.
People who rape children are planners. The methodically use any tool they have to groom, befriend, and get at children.
Many crimes are one offs, and will stop once caught. Rapist, and people who perpetrate sexual violence should not be allow to communicate with children.
If someone came to me and said we need to let 5 murdered or 5 rapist out, which should it be? I would say the murders should be released. Becasue most murders on one time events, very few are serial. Almost all rapists plan their attacks well in advance.
Yes, the military issues firearm to their militia. No one ion the us is talking about removing guns from out military.
If they want to own a gun, they must be in a security profession where it is needed, and under strict licensing guidelines.
So, lets make it so ONLY people in them military can be issued a gun, and only people who are in a security field where one is determined to be needed, and licensing happens every few years, and is very strict.
People who bring up the Swiss as proof the gun ownership in the US is safe are idiots.
no, democrats disagree with each other all the time, have open disagreements.
Right now, if you a pub and do that, you will be ignored and your career sabotaged. You're illusion that both side are equal and behave the same way all the time is stupid. stop acting stupid.
How many millions of hours a year do kids spend in vehicles? How many billions of miles? Now compare that with the number of hours they spend in school.
But you go ahead and compare just numbers becasue that's good~ twit.
wrong. Its a personality disorder. Oh, you read an opinion in a recent popular book, how good for you. Just a FYI: psychopaths aren't violent, and are almost never psychotic. Nothing in Adams description I have read indicates he was a Psychopath.
No, no it wasn't. His mother new something was wrong, but mental health program had been shut down. I read she took him to a psychiatrist, but that was only second hand and it didn't talk about what was said.
He exhibited classic symptoms that something was very wrong.
"it's safe to say he made a conscious decision of some kind to engage in murder." no, it isn't. People like you are why we can't have a good mental health discussion. You use thing yu think are obvious to dismiss any mental health issues. You have no idea about mental health. You thing someone can't snap and still do things?
Fuck you, and fuck everyone like you. I am sick of you people and your 1940's view of how people act. You are a fucktwad and a poor excuse for a limp wristed cum stain.
Same goes for the people who modded you 'insightful'. -1 ignorant loud mouth would be more accurate.
But what was the result? Parents do NOT have some special all seeing talent. at best they might get a cut feelinh that perhaps somethign is wrong.
She did the wrong thing. From Adams point of view she was pushing him away and out. She became the source of blame for what he was feeling Clearly, she wanted him to move on, have a meat space social life, but to people undergoing these depression and mood issues, they onloy see it as negative.
THIS is the price of not have mental health services readily available. If I was to blame someone, it would be the jackasses that shut down the mental health facilities in that town in order to save some pennies.
All this goes back to the perception of mental illness in the us. that people just need to be 'tough', and the people with mental health issues are 'crazy'. And that it's something that doesn't happen to people if the 'live right'. She should have been able to have someone come over and talk to him. Find good ways to get him well instead of just pushing him away. And yes, medication is needed.
I don't blame the mom. I blame a society in where a mom is expected to know everything and if she asks for help she is frowned upon. I blame a society where mental health isn't treated like any other illness of injury. I blame every person who would rather people walk around homeless, gets get killed in schools, plagues return, and malls get shot up rather then spend a few bucks on a social health system.
No, no, lets blame video games. That's the ticket.
Becasue: A) its a danger to the person whose home he is in. B)The closer you are to the source of the crime you commit, the less you respect that person. C)Having someone poke around in your computer is different then their physical presence in your home.
And no,. tyhat And I don't care if he broke into 900 accounts, this punishment is a waste of money, and too much. No one was personally at risk. nor did they have the perception that they were at risk of physical harm. How about he spend weekends teaching computer safety and usage for 2 years? It seems that would help society, be a fine punishment, cost less, and be enough trouble as to act as a deterrent. Putting him in jail will just mean he won't get a good job, want payback to society, and is more likely to commit more violent crimes after he gets out.
Welcome to the privatization of prisons. where locking people up as long as possible for the thinnest of reason mean more profit.

Yes, it does. Find some other bandwagon to glom onto.

But her acceptance to have sex with your mom does.
Then he can write collision and out of bounds software.

Except it's almost never a moment. Its almost always a planned event.
A dog that is shunned bites no one.
Are we done with thinking humans behave like dogs now?
no, that isn't worse then some one peeing in public being on the same list as people who rape children.
People who rape children are planners. The methodically use any tool they have to groom, befriend, and get at children.

People who prey upon children are planners and connivers. Sex Offenders will use any means at their disposal. So they should be shunned.
Unfortunately, the list goes far beyond what rational people would consider a threat.
and strippers..lots of strippers.
yes, yes you can.
obviously you want to know if the see the bug~
I would use tiny tools.

Do you live under a rock..in 1975?
the religious right and new-cons have been spewing hate. Hate for secularism, hate for gays. hate for women, and so on.
They need to be held accountable.
Who on the left is spouting hate?
Originally proselytizing meant a gentile considering become a Jews. So I find your post humorous... accurate, but humorous..
"r living under a delusion,"
A delusion is a belief held with strong conviction despite superior evidence to the contrary.

No, no, lets blame video games. That's the ticket.
they intend.
However, if the new policy allows them to do so, and you agree, then eventually they will probably do it.
Lets see them make a clear and official statement in the EULA.
Becasue:
A) its a danger to the person whose home he is in.
B)The closer you are to the source of the crime you commit, the less you respect that person.
