Kids Think They Are Entitled

An Illinois teenager alerted authorities when his parents did the unthinkable -- they took away his Microsoft Xbox 360. ( "GASP")

The ( Read article here Daily Herald ) reports that an unnamed 15-year-old called 911 last week after his mother and father took away his Xbox as a punishment for an undisclosed transgression.

( Yes Mom And Dad way to go !! We at the Coffeeshop Salute You !)

Buffalo Grove police Cmdr. Steve Husak says that the caper started out as a hang-up call to the emergency service.

Husak Says that all abandoned 911 calls in the area are traced and that officers follow up with a visit to the address .

"When officers responded, they saw it was a domestic situation," says Husak. "The center of the argument was that his parents were punishing him and " he wanted clarification of whether or not they could do that." ( Well DUHHHHH ! )

Officers advised him that yes, that was in fact a " punishment."

Husak adds that officers went on to explain that the boy's parents were well within their rights and that he should try to follow the rules of the house.
