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
