I for one believe he is 14. I have son just about like him (worse actually)
. They are both very smart and i know Jordo could write very well when he
was 14.
He also is very severe ADHD. Consequences of his actions were NEVER given a
second thought. Punishments had no meaning, it just did not matter to him.
He just never understood what all the fuss was about and it just didnt
matter. He has a very high level of impulsivity and again, with no thought
of outcomes. He never had any friends as they realized early on (like
preschool) that hanging with this kid was dangerous. If there was a tree,
jordo would be at the top of it, a wall, he would be on it, cars, he would
run between them with absolutely no thought that any harm would come to him.
He knew more than all the other kids and most of his teachers in most
topics. Since preschool he read the set of encyclopedias for fun because
they had neat pictures and cool stories. He was an absolute terror in the
classroom because he would quickly tell everyone how they were wrong, here
is the real way it is rather than the sissyfied version they were teaching
in school. Needless to say, he had no "social graces" and could not go
very many places unescorted.
Does he sound like anyone we know? I can guarantee he is a handful to
deal with and I for one dont want to go thru it again. I just dont have the
nerves to take another one.
I have not spoken with his parents and would not be the best one for that
job. Perhaps one of the ladies could deal with parents better than I.

- I think I agree with Georgie- I'm beginning to think this is not a 14 year old at all, but an adult or semi-adult who is pulling our chain. The composition is pretty well done. Has anyone actually tried to contact the referenced parents? I haven't had a teen around for several years but I can't imagine a 14 year old with this much brass. Just my opinion. John
