I've met frustrated parents, from those with lazy kids to those whose kids where skipping (and failing) most classes to go smash stuff and do drugs (and not exactly pot) with adolescent criminals.

I still believe only an asshole would talk about their son or daughter like that, particularly to someone not close.

Alcohol does tend to make assholes feel like they are good to go for being an asshole.

Not even Al Bundy called Kelly Bundy that.
