MY son. The most beautiful baby in the world, the most beautiful thing I have ever held, MY son. The labour and pain was nothing compared to the joy you bring me. I have so many plans for you my little cherub, my beautiful baby boy. My son.
All babies cry. He does not cry for fear, because MY son is brave and will be bold. He will be noble and valiant in a corrupt society. No he does not cry for want, because MY son is selfless and grateful. He is gracious and modest. MY son is a good boy.
Oh yes, MY son will be sitting the test for "Randle's school for the incredibly gifted". Well MY son won't need to worry about the test. He is already so intelligent. He will go to university and get a degree in a subject worth something. University is so important these days. MY son is three and can speak almost flawlessly. MY son is a genius.
My son decided not to go to that hack of a school. MY son was to artistically gifted, he told me with his flawless pronunciation, that anything less than that school would merely be a hole in the wall. MY son is so gifted.
His seventh birthday party has arrived, and MY son looks so darling in his little cowboy hat. He loves cowboys. MY son posses all the qualities of a good cowboy: intelligence, strength, valour, quick witted, and so forth. MY son could be anything he wanted to be.
I can't believe how quick he has grown. He's much taller that your son isn't he? He's far taller than all the other boys. He is a handsome boy. He will do great things. The only thirteen-year old to look like he should have a modelling contract. MY son, the picture of perfection.
My son is a young man now. No more playing in the street, he spends more time round his friends' houses. He stays late to do work for his exams, I trust MY son implicitly. He will do well. MY son, the brightest boy of all.
My sons' grades? Irrelevant. Scandal within the grading system and examiners meant that he did not receive the grades he deserved. MY son tried is hardest and was robbed of his victory. MY son tells me that all the other boys were just as unfortunate, although speaking to their mothers whom would have me think otherwise. Some parents cannot see the bad in their child. Thankfully MY son and I have a relationship that gets stronger with everyday.
MY son is a man now. Eighteen and going off to university to study a degree in IT. My son will achieve all that he wants to achieve. He is so brilliant. He will get a job and I will send him money, he will have a happy time at university and come back rich in knowledge and success. MY son the student.
Education is a mockery these days. MY son had no choice but to leave the university. Somehow it was making him less intelligent, less of a man. He came home to his mother, to be in a proper environment where he could flourish like he was meant to. MY son the realist.
What a year! MY son is an information Technician. He answers all the general publics questions on household appliances. Such a responsible job MY son has. He is doing so well. I am so proud of MY son. He may drink with his friends, but at heart he is such a good boy, he is so responsible.
Well! What an outrage! MY son was arrested for drink driving! What a disgusting country where only a few beers is 'over the limit'. MY son assures me it was a mistake. Apparently someone hit him in his car, and it wasn't his fault. I am so glad MY son is ok.
They have taken him to court! MY son! I will be there for him, to support him until he is proven innocent. What a disgrace! How unbelievable! His picture is in the paper. They say it was him who ran over a small child in the village. Poppycock! MY son was hit by another car, what a load of nonsense the papers make up these days. MY son, innocent.
The judge looks at my boy with disgust. They reel off a list of the terrible things he did. He was twenty two times over the legal limit. Not by boy surely? Where did I go wrong? No...surely not my little cherub. He...he hit a small child...playing in the street...at fifty miles an hour in thirty...twenty two times over the legal limit. MY son...
I see the judge I up in his chair...he passes the verdict...four years for drink driving, two years for reckless behaviour...and sever years for manslaughter...no...no. Not my boy...not my son.
The judge hands down the sentence. He looks at us, the gaggle of people, clucking away in disgust...disgust at...my boy. How...how could he do that?
"Is a member of the boys family here?"
I turn and leave. MY boy wouldn't do something like that. MY boy is a good boy. That is Daniel...a child I had once. MY good boy...MY son...is dead.

He wasn't just drinking pints. It was a drinking youth. More like Vodka/ pints/ cocktails. 22 times over the legal limmit is very easy in the UK.....if you're not a light weight :D

Interesting. In the U.S. the legal limit is figured by blood alcohol concentration.
The lowest legal limit I'm aware of is 0.08% BAC. 22 times that would be 1.76%.
In the great majority of people a BAC of 0.4 to 0.5 would cause death. Counting it by the number of drinks would change the formula, as you said.

Excellent story, but your typos killed what would have been a solid +2 streak - be mindful of that next time, please.

This was... weird, but i liked it.
If you are going to capitalize MY, make sure you do it everywhere. I notice a few and they stood out more than the MYs

Over here two pints is over the limit, I think you're allowed one and a half at most.
33 pints is doable.
