Boys missing at sea :(

[saintmichaeldefendthem]

The parents had a rule not to enter the ocean, only fish in the intracoastal. The boys decided on their own to venture out.

My son got his first boat at 6.

At 28, he has never been in trouble, never asked me for money, and been a full grown fuckin' man since 16.

Experienced adults get lost at sea too; when your number is up, your number is up.

Pretty low class to attack parents over this.

I disagree. When I grew up my parents would have never let us kids take off in a boat on the ocean.

Not low class at all. Just smart.

Exactly. This is why I wouldn't let my 14-year-old boy do this type of thing without some kind of adult supervision, boys this age are known to be risk takers and to break rules. This is what I'm trying to say here.

When I was even younger I was sent out to the wilderness alone to hunt, survive, and perform certain tasks as one of my rites of passage into manhood. Smothering children, which you and several other idiots on this thread seem to think is ok, seems to be a white man's quirk. The rest of the world throughout history has seen the wisdom of letting their boys become men. I could have eaten something poisonous or been torn apart by wild animals, but it was an experience I'll treasure forever and I had a right to take that risk.

Mmm. Yeah, I would say "trouble maker." If your parents did these things nowadays, they would probably be charged with a CRIME. Lol. You cannot send your children into the woods to fend for themselves.

Yet American Indian parents are still doing it. So much for your ignorant opinion of the law. My oldest son wants to do this and we're going to let him. Better call CPS.

I used to head off in to the woods all the time and yes I did fend for myself. You must have led a sheltered life. That explains alot.

If your parents send you into the woods, then they will be charged with a crime. End of story. Ask any lawyer.

And they are more successful than the general population or what? What IS your point? That putting your child's life at risk is good for him? Well, I disagree. It is my job as my son's mother to protect him from harm. He is a grown man now. He is 20 years old and is currently working for a tree company, training to be a climber.

It is not reported. I'm just sayin' they are dead. 6 days in the atlantic with a tipped over boat? They're dead. Unless pirates picked them up and sold them.

I'm sorry to hear this. Others can keep on fighting, I'll pray for the family.

 

[Gracie]

ChrisL, think you have the wrong idea about who's thread it is. Once its posted it belongs to the board and all board rules apply. You can't derail it if you want to.

Yes she can. Its her thread.

I just looked at google but I didn't see anything reporting them dead. Is this official, or is are you just stating what is the probably most likely scenario?

[Gracie]

Sorry guys. I was not reporting media news they are dead. I just said my opinion. After 48 hours, its usually considered over. 6 days? Sad to say...it IS over. I will pray for the family too, but I still think they are idiots to trust 14 year olds to do as they are told. They just aren't fully cooked yet.

Anyway....the hunt is still on. I was just posting MY thoughts about it. My apologies.

And it's the job of a son's father to protect him from overprotective mothers so that he can experience life and become a man. There's nothing new about this struggle.

Aren't you going to call her an idiot for saying what she did about 14 year olds? I mean, gosh, we must be some terrible parents for wanting to keep our kids safe, huh?
