[QUOTE="Robinboots, post: 351603, member: 4542"] Status offenses are simply things that juveniles only are charged with, like running away, truancy, breaking curfew. They are things that adults - depending on the jurisdiction - cannot be charged with. Assault, breaking and entering, drugs, theft - those are BigBoy offenses that juveniles CAN be charged with, and sentenced/treated like juveniles. If, however, those things are serious enough, and the older your difficult child gets, he could be "certified" as an adult. Then it's BigBoy time. I think it's great that he talks to you like this. THAT is hopeful. Mine has reportedly told others similar things, but not me. And he's a kids who USED to talk to me.... [/QUOTE]
