Literally speaking, I do not think they can put them down! It's kind of scary when you think about it. I have to wonder if all this is some kind of subliminal brainwashing by some nefarious power.
That would be the cell phone/wireless service providers. Pretty effective marketing actually. Create an addiction, then supply it.
So the dad was 47 when his son was born? It seems to me that part of the problem with this family is that the parents had this child too late in life. The son probably hasn't respected his dad for a while (being so old, and also being weaker physically than his son).
I thought about that too. That’s a huge age difference. I’m over twice the age of the son and my parents aren’t even quite 63.
There’s a lot of stuff going on with this family that can’t be explained by one thing.

Yep, that and the gullible people that the cell phone/wireless service providers KNOW will buy into it. This is typical of the tribal mentality of most people that these 'nefarious powers' take full advantage of.
Mark my words, there is worse to come re cell phone addiction, texting, etc.
What an awful thug of a son. Beating your parent severely like that over a minor dispute is insane. Lots of families argue over petty things without violence.
When I was a lad, the thought of raising my hand to an adult honestly never occurred to me. It was unthinkable. And to raise your hand to your father........? I could not imagine. I never even heard of such a thing.
Things are not "better" now. We do not have "more freedom".
"Felony assault and battery on a person over 60". There are different laws and penalties for assault on people under 60, and over 60? That's a new one to me.
Yeah, early 60s isn't really "elderly". There's a world of difference between 63 and 80. That being said that son did a terrible thing.

You are most certainly so. There's this thug named "Boonk" and his posse are known as Boonk gang. What he is known for is "pulling stunts." However, these are not just stunts--they are criminal acts. For example, he'll steal a gold chain from someone and run off with it. Or he'll vandalize a car. Or worse yet, he assaults certain people. He actually assaulted someone's grandmother last year and caught it on camera. (he actually got arrested for some of these "stunts") All of this is captured on camera and is shown on his youtube video.
What makes this even worse is that he has a HUGE following on instagram and youtube...which means that there's a lot of people (presumably the youth) who either endorse this behavior or approve of this behavior. I'm a LITTLE BIT older than his demographic but my cousin and I are almost the same age and he endorses this behavior. My cousin even mimics Boonk's motto, "a whole lot of gang ****."
The dad repeatedly told his son to stop texting at a Cape Cod restaurant. Outside, the son punched his father, who was knocked unconscious when he struck his head on the pavement.
Just as soon as I get home from the hospital , boy you are going on restrictions for 2 months.
