[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I heard a wise person say sometimes the best thing to do is simply report your child’s next illegal offense to the police department. Allow your child the experience of juvenile lock-up so he can decide if that’s the life he really wants. You do this BEFORE he’s 18, because then it’s a whole different ballgame. His juvenile offense can be expunged. [/quote] They don't lock up juveniles for weed possession. They just charge them with a misdemeanor, which adds to OP's plate as his parent. It doesn't "scare them straight".[/quote] Are they even charging for this anymore? The idea of reporting your own kid to the police is just ... wow. My parents tried to do this, and it created a permanent rift with one of my brothers. Did not help him at ALL. Also could ruin his chance to get any federal student loans or grants forever. [/quote]
