Regression



My 19 year old son has regressed back to his 9-12 years emotionally and developmentally. The other night him and his brother trapped one of these. Oh yes it was that big.Then they put it in a jar and brought it to "show" me. They were of course very surprised to see how afraid I was and the resulting anger that came from them waking me up and shoving this big assed spider in my face. Yes it was in a jar, yes it may be unreasonable but that is what happen when you have an unreasonable fear. Your not likely to react well when that fear is shoved in your face.
But I digress.
Back to Dustin's regression. So they catch this Big assed spider. Then they make it a terrarium out of an empty plastic pie plate and lid. Then they start catch other bugs to feed it. I guess that wasn't exciting enough because they start to catch wasps- which by the way Dustin may be allergic to- then they put the wasp in the deep freeze to see if they can freeze it and bring it back to life. The Dustin takes the wasp from the freezer,cuts off the stinger- so he thinks, turns out it was a leg- and puts the wasp in with the spider and then wonder why the spider appears to be dying. I thought he was supposed to be done with this kind of stuff before he turned 15. I guess I was wrong.
