    Regardless of legality, I think it's fair to say that these parents are horrible people. Even if this was an act of punishment, the correct course of action should be to fix the problem, not to invite more issues.

    I don't really think you have any place to make an argument from a position of moral superiority when you would admit to something as brash and barbaric as this.

    The word is facetious

    Well, he's entitled to his opinion. But I'm still going to express mine. I don't give a damn of what people think of me on a gaming forum.

    You can't just label someone elses opinion as "trolling" because you don't agree with it, that's not how it works.

    You obviously care if you're getting upset that people are considering you are trolling. The fact you continue to dismiss your "He dishonored his family" nonsense doesn't give you any more points.

    People are people no matter where you encounter them, the distinction you made is nonsensical, much like the opinion you expressed.

    Yeah, you can. If that's how you feel.

    No he can't. His parents were not his employers, nor was he entered into a formal agreement for use of their property (probably). Their decision to have nothing to do with him isn't violating any tort or criminal laws or statutes.

However it is possible for the person working the hours to ignore them and not file a complaint if they want to as this rule is never checked up on unless there is a complaint filed.
    Lol the laws restricting how many hours teens work is taken as seriously as jaywalking laws. This is coming from someone who worked pretty much fulltime (30-40 hours a week) at age THIRTEEN for two years at a store.

    You can't isolate the actions like that. I'd they had just ousted him from their home, he would have options and they'd just be parents who couldn't accept their son. However, they simultaneously took his car, his phone, and d his money, greatly reducing his ability to move forward in life. That is why they are assholes.

    This is why, kids, you never get custodial accounts.

    I had my account in my name (and my name alone) ever since I was 15.

    There's only one person in life you can trust 100% and that's yourself.
