The chattiest woman in The ATL has a young hellraiser on her hands. The son of Nene Leakes — one of the opinionated star’s featured on Bravo’s Real Housewives of Atlanta — has been held in the Gwinnett County Detention Center since March 7 on two charges including possession of less than one ounce of marijuana and failure to appear.

The Southern spitfire Nene first tweeted her disappointment: “Morning! I know my parenting job is NEVER DONE but TOUGH LOVE is ordered by the JUDGE! The judge n this case is ME….My head is up & held high this morning because I KNOW the parent that i’am! U hate 4 yo kids 2 make mistakes! TOUGH LOVE this morning”

NeNe then addressed her son’s arrest in a statement issued this afternoon: “Like any parent, I am disappointed with the actions and arrest of my son, Bryson. Certainly, my husband and I will deal with this family issue in a private manner. My son is not the first young adult to experiment with marijuana, and he certainly won’t be the last. Still, as parents, this is a chance for us to have an open dialogue with him about the dangers of any substance abuse. I realize as a parent that my job is never done. And as I’ve tweeted, tough love was in order. Still, I ask that you respect our privacy during this trying time.”
