[quote=Anonymous]I mean the right answer here is that the kid's arrest and the allegations against him should immediately trigger a CPS investigation and the parents should be sent to parenting classes and the family should be in a court-ordered program to address family dysfunction that is allowing this to happen. There's no real advantage to NOT releasing him to his parents because he will wind up in juvie or foster care and neither is likely to stop this kid from re-offending or escalating. A child engaged in this behavior at 12 is not going to be scared straight by juvenile detention. He's going to network and learn some new tricks.[/quote]
