Re: Son of Sarah Palin arrested for assaulting his father
In Alaska, Track might not be bad. Of course, they could have named him Yobbo. That probably would have changed his life.

Re: Son of Sarah Palin arrested for assaulting his father
Yobbo is an extension of yob which is a term derived from reverse boy. That is a yob is a backwards boy.

Re: Son of Sarah Palin arrested for assaulting his father
My experience is yobbo or yob is a rude, obnoxious, drunk thug, now called a chav.

Re: Son of Sarah Palin arrested for assaulting his father
OK, what is really in a name. For the first 17 years of my life, my given name of Andrea was perfectly acceptable in Italy. But when i came to the US my paternal grandfa5her decided it was NOT acceptable for a teenaged boy in America. So for reSons known only to my late grandfather i was re-Christened Hawk. And Hawk i have remained for the past 50 years. As now only my 89year young mother, my sister, and now Belle ever refer to mne by given name of Andrea.

Re: Son of Sarah Palin arrested for assaulting his father
By the way, have the Palins not consumed their entire 15 minutes a fame by now?

Re: Son of Sarah Palin arrested for assaulting his father
Track been acting out for some time now. I have no idea what they went through.
three of my boys served. When they first came home they would duck under the table when a car would backfire, and one of them now has a service dog known as a therapy dog. Who he's bonded with and takes everywhere. He served three tour of duty. I was surprised when he got the dog. Cause he's doing great in his personal and professional life, but you never know.
We were lucky that they adjusted. Not everybody can adjust. It's not something that anyone can control. So it's not Sarah or Todd's fault, let's all hope that they get him the help that he needs. This isn't really a political issue it's a human issue.

Re: Son of Sarah Palin arrested for assaulting his father
I think Palin was a lousy mother and that probably what stems the negative comments. I don't know her sons history before Iraq and he served as an air guard and I have no clue what exactly his job was and if it ended in psychological problems. Whatever his trauma, it has ended in the same results. There is help but it takes hard work, determination and the appropriate help, many fail. God Bless you(or whatever spirit moves you) Snowpixie, three sons, one doing three tours, as a mother I couldn't imagine!

Re: Son of Sarah Palin arrested for assaulting his father
It seems understandable to have trauma such as what SnowPixie has described ... yet I don't believe her sons are behaving in the same way as Track. It doesn't seem from what I've read that Track is exhibiting the type of behavior that SnowPixie is describing; it seems to be more of an entitlement issue ... approaching his parents' home in the way he did. There were reports years ago that Track was a heavy drinker who also used cocaine and oxycontin, so I have a feeling his problems stem from more than military experience.

Re: Son of Sarah Palin arrested for assaulting his father
Anger, alcohol/drugs, domestic abuse or any violence is a sign of those that have fought and have PTSD or family issues. My cousin died as a heroin addict from VN, drug addiction and alcoholism is not unknown to those in the military, matter of fact it is a problem. With a family like that it is difficult to say where his problems stemmed from.
