Instead of worrying about additional expense for the other parents if this kid is out of school, you should be worrying about their kids getting killed by a weapon being brought to school. What if one of their kids brought a weapon to school? Would you call the police? I would in a heartbeat, and they'd better get there quick because the little felon would be in a headlock begging for mommy.
That kid should never step foot in that school again. Period. End of story.

Hey - I'm the stepmom, and I'm the one saying he SHOULD get expelled, even if it means I'm going to pay extra for a kid that's not mine! It's lack of real-life consequences that has turned today's young society into what it is, IMHO...
I don't think the spanking he got last night had any impact on him, except maybe a bruise on his butt cheek, that's why I was against that form of punishment. He doesn't seem to care about being "grounded" - he's perfectly content watching paint dry. Physical labor? Well, I've got a heck of a lot of yard work to be done, but he's in decent shape for a 12 year old, he won't care...
I've got to convince my husband and his ex wife of a really good way to make the kid CARE about what he's done... Carrying a weapon to school is NOT OK. But then, it's really up to them, I've got no REAL impact.
