Talkie, talk, talk

My throat is sore, I think I'm going to be hoarse tomorrow...

I got a call this evening, around 6ish I think, it was from my slaves mom, asking me for some help with the slave, asking me to come over and talk some sense into Slave, saying that Slave(J) was upset, uncontrollable, irrational and very disrespectful. Acting spoiled in other words, say what? J is anything but those things.

So time to get the mom side of the story, with the move to Las Vegas imminent J's bunny had to find a new home, J knew this and was looking for a friend to take him, even had one in mind but that friends dad said NO! so Mom found another person to take bunny, a co-worker of a friend(Mom's friend). Person loves bunny, Mom is happy that bunny has a new home and everything should be fine, it's not, J is upset that the bunny is gone, Mom thinks J should act rationally because she knew bunny had to go, she shouldn't yell at Mom, she should just accept this and be respectful to Mom, child is not allowed to back talk Mom's decisions.

J's side, Person that has bunny now is not her friend, is not somebody they even know, it's a co-worker of Mom's friend. She knew bunny had to go but she didn't expect it to be so soon, plus she didn't know it was even happening, she just came home from school to find her Bunny gone. She tried to explain these things to Mom but Mom doesn't take her seriously, she tried telling mom she's not upset about giving bunny away, just upset about the circumstances. Mom didn't listen and kept telling her to calm down, and that she knew it was coming and just accept it. Also note that J is a high school Sophomore, yep a 16 year old woman

I know what my take on this is/was. What do you all think? is there a "right" and "wrong" party? are they both half right, half wrong? give me some feed back, then I'll tell ya what I said to both Mom and J.
