My 14 year old son Jason
is completely out of control.
(mysterious music)
When Jason doesn't get his way,
he gets angry.
One time Jason couldn't find his phone charger,
he punches holes in the walls.
I sure do. When we got in an argument,
Jason punched my in the face.
I had a busted lip.
My son has threatened to kill me in the past.
I have seen a video of Jason's gun.
Last week Jason was involved in a shootout.
It was right in front of my house.
I heard gunshots.
Next thing I know Jason is shooting
out of my front door.
I was scared.
My sister Amber is constantly undermining me.
Amber thinks that I choose my boyfriend over my son.
All these trips that you go on or have been on,
Jason has never been on one.
That is not true.
I barely see my boyfriend.
You should've left the boyfriend.
You should've took your son.
She likes to criticize me
for my relationship and parenting skills.
When Jason moved back in
he started to get in trouble at school.
Jason got into a physical fight with a teacher.
You're out of control.
You won't even go to school.
'Cause I don't want that school.
Jason refuses to go to school.
She wants me to do school, she can homeschool me.
The last grade my son completed
was the 6th grade.
My son should be in the 9th grade.
I'd like to see more of her
and she not work as much as she does now.
Get a daytime job.
I admit I don't give Jason
the proper attention he needs.
It's just I'm trying.
And I don't wanna put my life on hold
'cause I feel like if I quit my job,
then I lose everything.
Okay Heather, you been listening
to everything we've been talking about, right?
Yes. What do you have to say
to everything we've been saying?
I disagree with a lot of the stuff that she has said,
about she gives into Jason a lot,
she gives him what he wants.
Like to come here, she bribed him.
I didn't bribe him,
go to the Dr. Phil show
and I will give you this phone.
Well every time we've talked to him,
he was willing to come,
at times actually optimistic about coming.
He lies to everybody. I'm not doubting that
that's what he told you,
'cause I think he'll pull your chain and--
Right.
I think you guys,
I think you guys interact
at an emotional age of about 10 or 11.
I agree.
I'm not there like I should be as a mother.
You have other children.
I do.
And where do they live?
With their father
and the other one stays with her grandmother.
And you have three children and none of them are with you.
Correct. Why is that?
Because two years ago,
it was a case that Jason had,
a DSS case was involved,
Jason said that Buster had hurt his arm,
grabbed his arm and hurt it.
So that's when all the kids got taken.
And I've just never--
Yeah, but that case was dismissed.
Yes, yes. That was two years ago.
Right, but I had signed the paper
just to go to court to let them go ahead
and get the kids
so I can kinda get straight
and my life back in order.
Okay. Yeah.
Which has been the excuse for years.
Okay, but my point is
you could have the kids back legally--
Yes, right.
