More Tumblng Tumbl Weeds? 0

Relative to the previous post, whaddya bet these kids were tumblng on Tumblr?

Two Placer County teenage girls were arrested for allegedly using drugged milkshakes to knock out the parents of one of the girls so they could log on to the Internet, Rocklin police said.

(snip)

The parents drank about a quarter of the milkshakes but didn’t finish them, saying they tasted funny and were grainy, Milka said.

But the shakes – loaded with prescription sleep aids allegedly provided by the friend – were effective, and the parents quickly fell asleep.

A child therapist (watch me avoid the obvious pun) is quoted as saying that drugging (druggng?) one’s parents is not “a healthy level of rebellion.”

Afterthought:

I suspect therapy and therapists would be saner if the concept of “adolescent rebellion” were replaced with the more accurate concept of “getting away with stuff.” The concept of “rebellion” implies a goal of some sort.

I know that, when I was a kid, I really wasn’t rebelling against anything.

I just liked getting away with stuff.
