Well, at least there are some things in Menlo Park that haven't changed. Went to Willow Oaks in the late 60's-70's and this was not uncommon.

Well, let's not destroy his life for making a poor choice. I have a 13 year old, and they make some great choices and some poor choices. 13 years old is a kid with an unformed brain. Please treat this person like a kid, not a criminal.
There's a lot of research in this area about how to handle in a way that doesn't increase the probability that the child will make more poor choices.
