Your son is a liar!
Whoa! Whoa! You’re about to get a front-row seat to a knockout, so I suggest you save yourself by turning around and getting off my driveway as soon as possible. This is not a show you want to be part of.
Let me start from the beginning.
When my son was in 6th grade and probably years prior, he and his friends would ding-dong ditch in our neighborhood. If you’ve never heard of ding-dong ditch, it’s a ridiculous, annoying game that kids play. They ring your doorbell and run before you can answer the door.
I hate the game! And if I catch the kid, I say, “Hey, keep your fingers off my doorbell,” out of fear they will listen and probably move on to another innocent neighbor.
When I was a kid, I did a lot of dumb things, too, so I try to keep that in mind and refrain from strangling a ding-dong ditcher.
Apparently, once upon a time, my son was a ding-dong ditcher, and he was caught, or was he?
Well, according to my crusty neighbor, who lives somewhat behind me, my son was caught. So she took it upon herself to come to my house with her 12-year-old son, who wears Spongebob pajamas outside all the time.
I had just arrived home from parent-teacher conferences, and as soon as I pulled into my garage, I was greeted by her annoying presence. When I closed my door, she blurted out, “YOUR SON AND HIS FRIENDS WERE RINGING MY DOORBELL AND RUNNING OFF.”
My son, daughter, and her friends were outside playing basketball, and of course, they stopped dribbling and stared at us, wondering what would be said next.
My son said, “NO, MOM, I DIDN’T DO IT. I SWEAR, IT WASN’T ME.” His voice was shaking, and I could see the fear in his eyes.
She then pointed her narrow finger at my son and yelled at the top of her lungs, YOU ARE A LIAR. The frustration was palpable in the air.
End of Conversation
Yes, my son did it, but the mother will not allow me to have a conversation with someone who is getting loud with my child. So before things could escalate, I told my daughter, her friends, and my son to go inside the house and shut the door.
Once they were gone, I turned to her and said, “He will not ding-dong ditch on your door again. However, if he does, please let me know, and my husband and I will handle his punishment. But don’t you ever come to my house ranting, raving, with your finger pointed and your face that close to my son’s face ever again!”
So please turn around and go home before this turns into something that you can’t handle.
But what I wanted to say was
Bitch you have 3 seconds to hit the street and carry your hairy lip ass home before I will Molly walk yo ass all up and down my driveway.

She had better be happy that I’m saved and have found peace in my life.
You could have chosen any blog to read, but you chose mine, and I’m honored!

I’m so sorry this happened to your son. It’s so disconcerting when people, neighbors are so rude. While I know we live in weird times and people are afraid of what could happen to them but these are innocent games we played as kids and sadly, some people can’t take a joke. If this is the worst thing we have to worry about, we should be grateful, seriously!~ He just gets to learn not to take things personally because some people can’t take a joke. Could you put a for sale sign on her house?

:Tell me it wouldn’t be funny. I love you made them go inside to have a chat with her.

That’s exactly how I feel Dale. I’ve had this happen to but house and never once did I think to get my grown ass in the kiddos face and yell. Kids are still learning and super immature so we have to teach them the right way.

It is the civilized way to talk to the parents and settle the problem. I did that too, even when older, it is not endangering anybody like some of the pranks that are sometimes shown on YouTube. Her behaviour was unacceptable, I admire you for staying so calm and collected (on the outside 😉 ).

Thanks Stella! I understand her frustration because the kiddos have done it to me but to get in a kids face is taking it to far. She was aggressive and looked like she was ready to swing on him… uggghhh some people!!!

That behaviour was out of proportion with the “crime”, definitely. Some people don’t know what real problems are.

We called it something else and I won’t dare say it here. I hated it, always. And I often wondered why some kids did it. I was too afraid of my mother’s punishment if I were to ever get caught doing it, so I never rang a doorbell. But I watched a lot of my peers do it and ran off right along with them to get away from the ruckus if it started.
You could mostly find me playing kickball, jumping rope, playing street basketball, and dodgeball, etc.
Your neighbor could have approached the situation differently. *Sighs* Some people just aren’t equipped to handle certain situations accordingly, unfortunately.

Ha ha, yes, my child might have done something stupid and thank you for letting me know so that I can handle it. But, oh, don’t you dare come to my property and call my son names! Ugh! You handled this perfectly Belladonna. Love it.
