Maybe he's mentally ill, and just needs someone to sit down with him, give him a cookie and tell him that everything is going to be ok, and he dosen't deserve a fine or jail time, but just a massive amount of hugs.
Way to go Frank, you've probably ruined this poor kids self esteem.

That seems to be the way things are going these days, that peoples feelings are the most precious and fragile thing on earth and even coming close to hurting them in a constructive way will shatter their confidence and they will be a social recluse for the rest of their lives.
Some of the stuff that I have heard going on in schools these days is a little much. Everything is being sugar coated for these kids. They could be poor students that are in need of help, but we can't tell them that because it might be too damaging for them. Well what is worse babying the kids for their lives so when they actually have to do something for themselves they hit the panic button or avoid these situations all together or trying to give them criticism so they can become a stronger person?
