No, the moral of the 'Boy, Who Cried 'Wolf'' story is, that if you put the safety of your sheep in the hands of an unarmed child-worker, whose cries for help (as well as whatever noises murdered sheep make) you've decided to ignore - then you're a moron and a bad parent; you're going to lose your livestock and hopefully you'll be charged with murder, or at least manslaughter, or criminal endangerment of a minor, or somethin'. All your remaining kids will probably go into foster care.
So, yeah - watch your own damn sheep and send that kid to school. And call the Forest Department about the wolves. Or - you know - just get some gunz and smoke the som'bitches, because 'Murrica!
