Same thing happened to my wife, she literally pulled the car over and refused to drive to the amusement park until he apologized to everyone in the car for his bad behavior, which included spitting, biting, and swearing. He balked and finally gave in after 15 minutes. Same cold shoulder treatment after that. They both need help.

In this case, I think the Parents need to be diciplined. All I know that I raised my kids the way I thought they should be raised, and guess what they all turned out fine. That's more than I can say for MOST parents today. LOOK don't let ANYONE tell you how to raise your kids. If they need to be diciplened do it. When my kids were young and I knew that they had did something wrong I would tell them that if they lied to me, they would be punished. But if they told the truth even though they had done something bad, I would not punish them. and when they realized that, they always told me the truth. Even to this day they will tell me the truth and I ALWAYS help them through it. Maybe this would work for the troubled little boy in question.
