    Felony charges for a middle school student on, what I imagine is, a first offense seems a bit ridiculous, but an example should be made of them.

          Usually, one would make an example of people who caused some harm so that nobody else does the same harm.

          What harm was done here? Or, if you prefer: why, exactly, should an example be made here?

      Did you read the article? It suggests several alternative actions across a variety of similar cases that were more effective responses.

        I did. It also suggested felony charges… which is what I was commenting on. Please get your dopamine needs elsewhere, fool.
