Gavin is not off to a good start today. This morning, according to *eyewitness* reports, he purposefully tripped Emmett causing him to fall and hurt himself.
Elliott says that Gavin stuck his leg out as soon as Emmett was running by him. Typically, Elliott is defending Gavin, so I have little reason to suspect that Elliott is not telling the truth. In fact, even Emmett was trying to say that Gavin tripped him.
Based on Gavin's reaction to being questioned, he did it. My question is why. This time last year, this behavior from Gavin wouldn't surprise me. However, recently, he has settled down a great deal and so this seems out of character for him.
The other side of the coin is that it appears that Gavin has hit a manic phase. We haven't seen this in awhile. However, he was up in the middle of the night doing his *shows* again.
I'm not sure what to do at this point. There has to be consequences for him tripping Emmett, however, if he's manic again, than he's doing to be *very* prone to impulsive behavior. Can we hold him accountable for manic behavior?
You see on TV that get away with crimes because they were *manic* at the time they committed the crime.
This never gets any easier. Where's my instruction manual? Hello, at this point, I'd settle for an *easy button*.
Thoughts?
