When we last left the topic of extraneous parental calls to 911, a mom in Ozark, Arkansas called police because her daughter wouldn't take a shower. That episode ended with Officer Dustin Bradshaw tasering a 10-year-old girl...

It's apparently hard for a teenage boy to put down simulated violence and sex. Who wouldda thought?

Boston PD spokesman Joe Zanoli says a mom called police at 2:30 a.m. Saturday morning to say her teenage son wouldn't stop playing video games and go to bed. Apparently the kid has a bit of an addiction to Grand Theft Auto. Even more nefarious: He was wasting energy by going around the house and turning on all the lights.

But instead of tasering the little ingrate, as is protocol in Arkansas, the two officers convinced the kid to do what's right and obey his mother. And they didn't even need to draw their weapons or beat him with the Yellow Pages to get compliance.
