^ Oh okay now I understand why she in jail and the kids in protective custody.

Other then that it seems like a bright kid. Shit for all I care maybe with a lil bit of counseling the kid should be let back with his parents. It's not like his parents were forcing him to stay home and play GTA. For all we know it coulda been his father/mothers video game which he would sneak onto to play every now and then. The kid was at least trying to make it to school without waking up his mother.

I drove my dads car when I was 5 years old. As soon as he saw me speeding away he chased after the car and opened the door and stopped the car. I got SUCH a bad whoopin' immediately afterward.
I understand how that kid must feel.

rofl. Yeah. That kid wants to learn real bad.

Must have been asian.



The mom (Jacqulyn Deana Waltman, 26) is currently being held without a bond, while the father (David Eugene Dodson, 40) was released on a US$ 5,000 bond.


I highly doubt that is the case.

And wtf with GTA, it messes with everyone's mind

Was it just me or did you guys not notice the huge age difference in male and female o_o. The man must be a pimp to get such a young wife.

But on topic, I think the kid is a genius in the making. It'd make an even more interesting story if he actually made it to school. Hahaha.

I noticed but did the math and if anything either she was 18-20 years old when she met the guy which woulda made him 32-34. Which led me to assume that either this female just had low self-esteem to have a family with a man almost twice her age. Not much of a pimp but more like a chester the molester that got inside a young girls head. Let them be.

lol what the fuck? This is so hilarious/odd. The strangest question that comes to mind is why the hell is a 6 year old THAT motivated to go to school? And why is he playing GTA?

and even if the mom had an existing thing against her, I don't see how she can get owned for this :/ How is anyone supposed to stop a 6 year old who is that motivated

I guess these "Previous issues" are not our concern or not that big of a deal, that's why they didn't post them. But now I am curious :/!

that kid is so pro. driving at 6. wanting to go to school. waking before his parents do. getting his parents in jail without them even moving out of bed. well, i guess that last one isn't as good to the parents.

if you use rule of 7, she met the guy way too young, and she's still too young for that guy by a year.
which makes sense if the dad is trying to train his son to be just as pimp as he is, play GTA and only GTA from when you're born until you're on da streetz yo.

Nothing wrong with young boys playing GTA, or watching badboys for that matter.
If some children know how to react to such a situation it is the children who play games like GTA whom are once who can find the differ, I think it is good that he have been playing it. He knows the police is coming after him if he dose something wrong.

Personally I have always been giving primission to everything with an age limit, and for good. I know how to stay calm even in danger, I think it is because I have gained experience from the games and movies from an early age.

Secondly the game learn him that if he drove people down the police will track him down and end up killing him, and I doubt he will risk that, to get to school in time.

the parents would have to have been drunk or something for them to be responsible for this.
