Yeah, that must be it. I’m wondering if some stupid “tweener” movie has that in it. Maybe the kids just think it’s fun and games, no harm, no foul. I’ll have to ask the 15 y.o. grandsons if they’ve seen something like that in a movie. I’m betting they have.
I’ve seen that in movies, and there is even an episode of Hannah Montana where Miley’s brother puts the obnoxious rich kid on a hook outside the beach bathrooms. They show him squirming and screaming at him.
If this is a prank gone horribly wrong, the kid(s) that did this are going to need therapy.
My heart hurts for this family. For all the families.
Johnny Dangerously with Joe Piscopo...from the 80's. Hardly a current-day tweener movie, though.
