More redneck stuff

OK, this actually happened to me yesterday. The setup for this one is we have a boy (very nice boy, btw - at least since he's grown up a little) who works for us off and on. He came to me with a problem yesterday...
-You know you're a Redneck when yo mama's thrown in jail in Nashville for being involved in a bar room brawl with another drunk, high chick.
-You know you're a Redneck when you have to borrow money for bail for said mama. And money for gas (lots of it) to get to Nashville because the friend who's driving you owns the biggest, newest, gas-guzzlingist truck money can buy. 'Ceptin the friend lives in an old run down fallin apart trailer
He was dreading getting her out because of all the h*** she's gonna raise about it for the next few days, even though it was her fault.
Poor kid. He used to be a holy terror, but has been doing well for several years now. He's a hard worker.
His mama scrounges almost every bit of the money he makes. He's got a 16 yr old little sis who looks like she's following in mama's footsteps.

poor kid-sounds like he needs to cut the apron springs and make mama grow up.

Seriously! He shouldn't bail her out, IMO.

Definite "you might be a redneck" material, though

Agreed. Would be best for the 16 year old to get away from that example. let Mom sit in jail and think - "dry out" for awhile.

agree with the above, the mom is grown up,she nees to suffer the the consequences, maybe it will ring a bell in her head. The boy needs to get a life of his own, really needs to cut the apron strings, but his sibling he owes something to. but not money or bailing out of jail...

I don't think this is redneck, this is trash. Big difference!
