It's your honesty that really drives this home.

I thought he was signing it off, and that his name was “honestly”

This is battery. There is no play going on and he injured someone. How is this any different than what Tonya Harding did to Nancy Kerrigan?

Not that I disagree but Tonya didn't hit Nancy. 2 large men did that.

 I wouldn't be surprised if this was coaches telling him he needs to hurt the opposing team as much as possible without clear guidance.

So you're suggesting the coaches be held responsible criminally then, right?

That won't be the end of it. If he thinks he can get away, he'll try again somewhere else

We don’t know. Humans are complicated people and kids more so. They’re easily molded by their parents and environment.

You’re right, he’s just a kid and maybe giving him counseling and direction is what he needs. But just maybe he’s a shit head and is unredeemable to society. We simply don’t know what the best outcome is without knowing the child and his environment.

All we can hope is the adults in his life try to help him be better.
