robert reich's dilemma

yesterday i saw robert reich (my CPA neighbor) pass my store to enter the building to go up to his office. he had his head down. but i saw he was very upset and he had a black eye. i knew what had happened. he had been beaten again by his son. robert reich and his wife sylvia had adopted a child many years after they had married when they knew they were never going to have any children of their own. the little cute child that once was has now grown into a three hundred pound six foot tall man with semi mongoloid features who i am certain is completely mad. i have heard him enter robert's office and shout and scream at him demanding money and then he would threaten him if he refused to pay up or pay him less than what he had demanded. i have heard robert plead with him in high pitched crying tones to leave him alone and the son would just  laugh at him and demand more. once sylvia told me that she wished she had never adopted him. sylvia has cancer and is losing weight fast. i am worried about her and robert. i have hinted to robert that me and my greek friend chatalas can teach his son in fifteen minutes  how to respect his parents but robert is too scared that he will hurt him even more.  i know it is a noble thing to adopt a child. but there is always the danger of things going wrong since you do not know the genetical history of the child you are adopting.

according to some including the police mahalle i am backward when it comes to adoption. well let me tell you this. if you go to a restaurant and order ghormeh sabzzi you will get a dish of ghormeh sabzi, it looks like a ghormeh sabzi and it smells like ghormeh sabzi  but once you put it in your mouth you know it is definitely not the way you or your mother make the ghormeh sabzi. it is because the ingredients are different. it is exactly what you get when you adopt. you may enjoy the restaurant ghormeh sabzi but your mom's ghormeh sabzi yek chizeh digast.

it looks like calling for help wins and belting the sob loses. i was looking forward to see the creep on the floor crying and begging for forgiveness ;-)

The solution

by Anonymous javaneh (not verified) on

Seems to me you have two choices either look the other way and ignore this or call the police. You can not take the law into your own hands, you may end up in trouble yourself. Better to call the police as this couple are not strong enough to get intervention for them selves. It is a dilemma for them. It may turn out better than you think and this couple may need someone to take action for them.

i have known a lot of americans and they don't think it is proper to butt in. it is sickening that they feel that way. i take the butt in of culture any time of the day or the night. we seem to care (even if may be too much at times) but we show we care by getting involved rather than staying in the side line in order to be proper. some times it is good not to be proper.

BN Jaan !!

I get the point,what you suggest is possibly the best choice for them,but would the family & friends'  " Intervention", be as effective as it is ( most of the time) in our culture?!.

they don't want to deal with the police and the kid refuses to see doctor. it seems to me that people who are in this situation feel they are powerless. this is where family and friends should step in and try to help.

Your worst case of chert-o-pert so far

by Chert-o-Pert Police (not verified) on

Look Bajenagh...this is serious. Call the police next time you hear abuse going on next door. Don't attempt teaching anybody anything (you really are no good at it), and don't approach this guy's son for giving him advice or for a beating up, and DO NOT involve other innocent people in your silly schemes. Sheesh...you are hopeless. Your thinking on adoption is so backwards, I don't have the stomach to begin correcting you on it.

this story is not fictional. it is much more uglier than i could describe it. i had to tone it down. and the kid is now in his late thirties and needs a proper belting if you ask me.

911 or a shrink !?

by ebi amirhosseini on

That's the question?!.

Dear BN

What is the solution? beat the kid up? Are you serious?

Now more than any other blog you wrote, I hope your stories are fictional! So I am going to reply as if it is:

The problem is that you have very thin walls in your building!

Have a nice saturday
