If his mother is in Iraq right now, chances are the kid is having a rough emotional go of it. If children act out because they can't get enough attention from a parent in the room, imagine how they'd act out of they weren't getting enough attention from a parent who is risking her life halfway across the globe?

I agree that there are better ways that this could be handled by all, especially the mother (but I agree that the time difference might be confusing or the mother might have very limited opportunity.)

But I'd imagine that if I were sixteen and talking to my mother-- whose safety is not assured-- on the phone for the first time in weeks, I'd be emotional enough that I'd have trouble controling myself if someone tried to separate me from her again. And I'm fairly well-balanced.
