Massachusetts Boy Calls 911 To Avoid Early Bedtime
A 10-year old boy in Brockton, MA, angry at his mother for sending him to bed early during his vacation time from school, is in even more hot water with mom for calling 911 to report her actions.
When arguing with his mother about his bedtime proved fruitless, Dan Davis told her he was going to call the police and report her and she challenged him to do just that.
“He’s like, ‘I’m going to call the cops on you,'” Shamayne Rosario, Davis’ mother, told the 911 operator.

“Dan, would you like to talk to the police?” Rosario is heard saying on the return call, “because you can’t be calling 911 when there is no emergency.”
His mother explained the early bedtime argument and an officer was dispatched to the Davis home. The boy’s mother asked the officer to talk with her son to impress him about the consequences of calling an emergency phone line when there is no emergency.
“I said, ‘Make this a learning experience for him,’ and [the officer] went and spoke with him and told him about the consequences of that action,” she told Boston’s WHDH.
Although police declined to file any charges, the mother has grounded her son for two weeks.
