Son got beaten up

This is correct - he doesn't have to "press charges" and it doesn't have to be him who reports it . The poor lad probably isn't the best person to make the decision - maybe you need to take control for him and just report what happened, the police will take it from there. All information helps to build a picture and these types of actions tend to be cumulative.It's not necessarily up to him to press charges is it? The police can press charges with or without your son's co-operation if they think a criminal act has taken place and have evidence (such as cctv) to support it.
Enormous sympathy to you and your son, countrygal. I also have teenaged sons - one of whom is a goth and so a target for the mindless idiots who pick on anyone different to themselves. :mad:
No relaxing in this house until they're all in of a night!
How's your son feeling now countrygal? What did you decide to do?[0
