Your job as a parent is to prepare your kids to be competent, able adults, who have the ability to think and act on their own. At 17, it's time for that young man to start taking a stand when he feels he needs to. I applaud him for doing what he thinks is right.

As for signing the form, as a minor, his signature is not legally binding.

Seems like the same folks who were so proud of the pinhead who sued his teacher over creationism are the ones with no sympathy for this kid. Maybe those two should just switch places, both would be happier.
