We'll be turning him in.
Sebastian and I talked at lentgh this afternoon over this whole thing, and I gave him the options.
He gave me the name.
I'll be making the call early Monday morning so they can catch this kid however they have to without involving Sebastian at all.
He's still very worried, but he knows something had to be done.
And being the super awesome kid he is, he's even concerned for this kid's future.
He said to me, "Mom, he's a senior. He's applied to colleges, got accepted I think he said, this will ruin his life."
I told him that our turning him is not the thing that is ruining his life, it's the choices that he's made, not ours, that have determined what his future holds for him.
This kid chose to push drugs on to others, he chose to smoke them, he chose to try and force another student to take possession of them, that's all on him, not us.
I hope that all this goes off without any major problems. I'll be worried sick all day Monday and every day after that, but I know it's the right thing to do, and Sebastian knows it is too.

I'm glad Sebastian decided to turn him in. I was reading the other post thinking that kid's determined to set him up. It's almost like the kid is so pissed that he keeps saying no, now he wants to get back at him.

I hope it all goes well. Hopefully, they'll catch this kid right away, find the weed on him, and he's busted. I hope this will finally be the end of it.

Good work Sebastian...do you want me to call and tell him so, Kat?

I hope they catch the bastard first thing! It's bad enough the kid is doing drugs to begin with, but how DARE he keep pushing them on someone who has repeatedly said he wants no part of it?

Very smart and brave kid you have. I think Sebastian is doing this kid a favor. If he gets caught it might be an awakening he needs. However... if they do not get to the kid in time, Sebastian may still have to turn it in. Crossing fingers that everything goes smoothly for Sebastian. He deserves lots of hugs for this ***wink***

Sebastian has integrity and he will no doubt do very well in life.

I think Sebastian made the right choice because now they can catch the kid responsible and help him. Not to mention, there is no risk that Sebastian's record will get blemished for having ever had it in his possession. I know they said if he turned it in they wouldn't do anything, but as someone who hasn't been out of school that long, I found myself going "uh-huh, I've heard that before".

No fucking way was this a good idea. The kid/s already applied to college. How long until he graduates, less than a month? But now, he can take another year of high school, get put on probation, and you say serves him right, like he was really trying to harm anybody. He was probably just joking around with Sebastian anyways. Now he/s gonna get fucked like nobody/s business. I can/t believe you decided to fuck up someone/s life because of a plant. You/re all a bunch of dick wads. fuck you.
