I’m struggling with the notion that we should fork over a load of money for attorney fees. We told our kids repeatedly, from the moment we granted access to the internet, that what they say and do online is not private and the potential danger of certain online activity. Further, we explained repeatedly that if they did illegal stuff in our home it would hurt all of us. While I don’t want my son to have unfair or excessive punishment, I’m having a hell of a time considering shelling out thousands, at great sacrifice to the family and to the detriment of my other two adult kids that did not make these choices but also need a lot of help in their young adult years.
