An Arizona dad was so fed up with his 14-year-old daughter's disciplinary issues he handed the girl a gun Sunday and told her to pull the trigger, police said.
Ulys Laffette Bell IV, 38, of Fort Mohave, gave the 9mm handgun to his daughter Sunday and instructed her to commit suicide, the Mohave County Sheriff’s Office said.
The teenager reported the incident Monday to school officials who informed police, 3 News Las Vegas reported.
Bell admitted to authorities he had disciplinary issues with his daughter and gave her a gun to shoot herself with, officials said. He told police the gun was not loaded at the time of the incident.
Sue Callahan, the sheriff’s office spokeswoman, said officials couldn't confirm the gun was unloaded at the time of the alleged incident.
Bell was jailed on suspicion of disorderly conduct with a weapon, child abuse and endangerment.
It was not immediately known whether Bell had an attorney.

Whatever happened to just saying, “I brought you into this world, and I can take you out and make another one look just like you”?

Pretty awful saying. Only deranged people would say it. You stay away from my family and decent people.

I feel blessed and lucky that I have 4 good kids.
The father here, may have been calling her bluff and was trying to prove a point. I doubt seriously he thought that she had any real intention of shooting herself.
Fake news, and the little drama queen 14 yr old girl spreads even more misery...

Yes they can, had 2 girls who nearly drove me crazy. Wouldn't have done that I'm pretty sure but did a couple things I'm not proud of.

Pull the trigger. If the gun goes bang it is loaded. Unless it's a Hi-Point.

“Pull the trigger. If the gun goes bang it is loaded.
Unless it’s a Hi-Point.”
I had a brand new Kel Tek that went click on it’s third round. Didn’t mind so much when the boat turned over and I lost that piece of junk.

And 15 year olds. And 16 year olds. And...
Proof she’s a handful by turning him in.
He was stupid enough to do it but doubly stupid to admit anything to the cops.
