I did not assume anything, I merely was saying that there were other options . Who knows if they have used these options since the child is a repeat offender. I agree telling someone you’re going to murder them is not a natural behavior, and is a behavior that needs looking into . Hopefully this kid will get psychological help for whatever is causing him to behave this way.
But forcing legal action still seems a bit extreme since it is a child and there are other major crimes that the police could be working on. However, if that is the only way that they could get the child and parents to go into therapy then that is truly sad.
Apologies if I misunderstood you. You said,
"There are other ways to get a child and parents to go to counseling, calling the cops on the child is not a good way. They could of called a conference and discussed their concerns about the child and recommended perhaps a visit to the school counselor "
Saying "they could have called a conference" "...and recommended perhaps a visit to a school counselor" implied to me you were assuming they had not tried those courses of action.
