You can read the full story here: http://www.citynews.ca/news/news_17769.aspxHe bought his son the one thing he wanted for Christmas, then used it to teach him an expensive lesson. And now a Canadian elementary school teacher has become the talk of the Internet, after his actions earned him more than $9,100 and international attention.....
...."I had finally got the Holy Grail of Xmas presents pretty much just in the nick of time. I couldn't wait to spread the jubilance to my son," the father, writing as "k_lid", noted in what turned out to be a lengthy series of posts on the site. "Then, yesterday, I came home from work early and what do I find? My innocent little boy smoking pot in the backyard with two of his delinquent friends."
So the outraged dad took the game and put it - and his story - up for sale around the world.
"As of the time of me writing this, he does not know I got him Guitar Hero 3," he continues. "I will show him the auction once it is posted and we can watch it finish together. Sort of a "Father-Son bonding experience." While I doubt this will keep him from ever smoking pot again, I think it will make him think twice before doing illegal (well I think pot is still illegal in Canada) drugs on my property."...
I have to laugh at the kid for being a dolt and getting caught and for also taking the chance knowing what a jerk his dad would be about it and at the same time I think the dad is being a jerk over this. Oh yea...the Dad should also get his facts straight about the legality of pot in Canada instead of being a self-righteous jerk over it. (I'm not trying to start a political argument over it so don't try to derail or go running to an mod/admin claiming I am).
How's that for a split view.
