Yes definitely. You need to talk to your son and tell him that your behaviour was wrong and try to explain your reasons for it without justifying it. He needs you to be his role model, and if you want your son to become a mature sensible likeable member of society then you need to model the kind of acceptable behaviour that he can emulate.

Yes, but it might not be necessarily copying your bad behaviour.
It may be that you have shattered the illusion of the person he thought you were and he is wrestling with this internally - maybe feeling angry and lashing out on the girl as a substitute for you.
Maybe he is scared the police are going to come and take you away and that you will end up in prison and he will end up in care. This may sound extreme, but children's minds do come up with some awful and often illogical scenarios.
You need to talk to your boy and tell him what you did was wrong. Maybe you can do the right thing and apologise to the neighbour to show your son that you are a good person after all.

Your actions have obviously made some sort of impact on him. Could you not have spoke about your problem with your neighbour while you knew your child was present? or why didnt you just leave it til you were alone! Fighting is not the answer!! you need to sit your son down and explain it was a BIG mistake what you did and you regret it (even if this is not true) it just shows that you are the adult and he does as you say not as you do! you need to really sort it out asap or this situation could get much worse for you both. Good Luck :-)

Yes, I think you have encouraged this behaviour. It is unacceptable to use physical violence to end a dispute, unless it was used in self defence. You don't say how you feel about your actions and what your views of your son's behaviour are. You would have no credibility if you tried to tell him what he did was wrong, when you do the same yourself. You need to grow up and be a better example to him in the future so that he doesn't attack his neighbours when he is an adult.

Maybe you could make up with the priest you assaulted and have him counsel your son. Or maybe with the money you could save from not buying him cigarettes you could pay for anger management classes. A better question would be why do you feel the need to fantasize and post such strange questions on Answers?

Yes. The best thing you can do is to sit your child down and explain that you handled that issue the wrong way. Tell him that you and him are going to go to some anger management classes. This way he knows that you acknowledge being wrong and he understands why he shouldn't do this at school. God bless the both of you.

Probably seeing the assault on your neighbour has affected your 11 year old son. Good luck in the future.

At the age of 11 he should already have known that it's unacceptable to headbutt someone, so you aren't to blame directly. however, the fact that you would physically assault someone in the first place shows that you aren't a very placid person, so he may have been picking it up from you long before now
