When I was a little girl, there was a bigger boy who sounds very similar to that boy. He scared everyone. Despite encouragement from many sources, his parents refused to get him the psychiatric help that he desperately needed.
As a teen and an adult, he had numerous run ins with the law and had been institutionalized a few times. He spent many years suffering from untreated mental illness. He was not a functional member of society until recently when he finally got help.
I hope that this boy's parents heed the advice to get help. There are doctors and medicines that might be able to treat him. Otherwise, I see years of misery for this boy, his family, and anyone he decides to hurt.
