Last night while Boy Toy and Spotty Chop were leaving hockey practice Boy Toy witnessed a domestic violence incident. Spotty DID NOT see anything (too busy playing video games).
A man and woman were hitting each other and then
the
man pushed her out of the car and left so
quickly that it spun her around. Boy Toy called 911 and followed the
guy until the police came. The police spoke to Boy Toy as did the
woman. She thanked him and said that the man had hit their son, and that was
the last straw and she stood up to him. Boy Toy congratulated
her and told her she did the right thing. She didn’t want to press charges, but
Boy Toy did and because
he witnessed it (a violent assault the police called
it) and said what he said,
the man was arrested. Spotty
Chop was a little upset that the guy was going to
jail, but Boy Toy explained what
happened and that what the man did was unacceptable and you just DON’T DO THAT.
This morning
I said to Spotty, “so your dad said that you were a little upset about the guy
going to jail, you understand why he had to go?” Spotty said “he hit a woman,
and pushed her out of a car, you just can’t do that.” I agreed. I then said “your dad did the right thing, you
have to help people when they need help.”
Spotty rolled his eyes at me “I know mom, you have to do the right thing”.
WORD boy.
Snaps to the
woman for taking a stand to protect her child. I truly hope she and her son end
up happy.
