Hi, He is 17 years old. Will be 18 in October. I have been told this by Friend of the Court and Law enforcement. Supposedly in Michigan you are considered adult enough to go to jail for crimes once you are 17, but not completely an adult. Don't know if that makes sense....doesn't make alot of...

Well he is in jail again today. MIP and blew a .14 breathalyzer. His Mom can't figure out how this happened....he parties all night has no job, no rules and lives in her basement.

My son has found himself back in trouble again. It didn't take long. His mother informed me that he has been to jail 2 x as of lately once for underage drinking and another for snorting bath salts and going to ER. She did not call to let me know about either instance until yesterday. She is...

Hi, I am the guy with the 17 yo who committed a crime and has a very large resituition to pay. His mother has told the court that she does not have a job although she has two and she is trying to stick me with the bill that I cannot afford. My son has a settlement in his name that could be used...

So is everyone thinking that once he turns 18 he is responsible? I am not so sure because he committed the crime when he was 16.

When my son was three he was playing in a parking lot of an apartment complex that his mother lived in. A lady was not paying attention and ran over his foot. Luckily he was okay, but his foot is still not normal. His Mom sued the lady driving the car through a lawyer that took on the case at no...

The only problem is that he is supposed to make $100 monthly payments until his 18th birthday which is 3 months away. At which point I could see him blowing through $20,000 and the judge trying to make me pay. His Mom has "no job" that she will tell the court about. The judge told his mother and...
