I hate it when someone is mean to my son!! ARG! I get so frustrated when kids can't just get along. But anyways, my son(8years old) is very sheltered for the most part. His father and I are very protective of him. I feel its my duty & responsibility as his mother to take care of him. And sometimes he gets  frustrated with us for doing so but he's our only child so he's gonna have to get used to it. Well, I recently started letting him go to the field with a partially wooded area with three of his friends & his cell phone. He has so much fun there just being a boy and making a fort with the other kids. Well in my neighborhood things are divided between two groups of children one being the children who's parents let them run wild and another that make their children come home at a decent hour and check in. Well, the "wild" children's parents and I were friends. We are not Not friends now but hang out much either. Just not enough time and I'm not interested in going to the local restaurant to get drunk at 12 in the afternoon while the kids are in school. Anyways, I never told them I disapproved of their actions just politely declined a few times and they stopped asking. Well, to make a long story short my son was playing with one of the "wild" girls Saturday and decided to show her where his fort was. After that they invited us over to make Easter Eggs. I thought okay this is all going well, everyone was having fun and no one was drunk(yippee). Well yesterday afternoon my son came home from the woods with his friends and said that their fort was destroyed. They had 2 plastic chairs and 2 plastic tables that were smashed into pieces and then on top of the mess was a big pile of POOP!!! Yes Poop!!! I couldn't believe it when they told me. I was appaulled. What the hell would posses a child to take a dump on someone else's stuff. Then once my son and his friends were asking around they realized that the "wild" girl from Saturday showed the other "wild" kids where the fort was to ruin it.

I'm sooooo annoyed at their parents! Should I say something......like take your kids allowance and buy my kid new tables and chairs or let it go and let them work it out. The only thing that concerns me about them working it out is that the older "wild" boy was walking behind my son taunting him saying "come on, bring it on".
