[QUOTE="klmno, post: 402172, member: 3699"] I just read SW's response- I should clarify- it depends on what state you're in and in the state I'm in, they most certainly can do it. They just wouldn't have. The police would have arrested him and takken him to juvy to await trial if the sd calls them. If the parent calls, then they are musch more likely to take them in to a psychiatric hospital for observation. But in this state, parents typically feel that the scenario you described is the one we wish the sd and police would take, even though they can- they don't. But difficult child's elementary sd also wanted to have him arrested at 8yo for bringing an orange or green plastic squirt gun to school (that he'd gotten as a reward at cub scouts the night before) on the charge of bringing a look-a-like weapon to school. Never mind it was flourescent but clear plastic with a huge white "trigger" that no child over the age of 2yo would have thought was a gun and difficult child never pulled it out, much less pointed it at anyone.
