Too be fair, we do not know how old the kid was yet.

Also, again, with some on here acting like evil people will break in to their homes at any minute, I am surprised they are ok with this.

We know the kid was in school, so old enough in my opinion.

What I would like to know is who pressed the charges? That's the idiot that need the shit kicked out of them.

Given that the concern of the judge was that the boy could have been abducted by a pedophile, I think dad left him alone to walk. If the kid is 5, I could see why the judge is pissed.

If the kid was five, I'd have thrown him into house arrest and bread and water for

a month. No, make that 6 months.

6 months is pretty light. Why take it easy on him?

So you'd let a first grader walk a mile home by them self?

Well hopefully he/she has a conceal carry permit, right?

Nervous about what?

Surely not your intellect or debate skills...

How do we know dad didn't follow along behind the young man?

Well, here is some more info.

http://khon2.com/2014/05/29/kauai-father-explains-why-he-made-his-son-walk-a-mile-home/

More info:

1) He did not follow behind the kid. He dropped him off and left with his other two sons. When he came back his son was gone. A bystander saw him crying and took him back to the school. He should feel fortunate this person picked him up, and not anyone else.

2) According to some other articles I saw (not mentioned in the link I posted, but you can see a picture of the kids) the son was 8 years old. That would mean 2nd grade I believe.

3)

I saw that picture on a few sites. That was the road he was forced to walk home on. The Kuhio Highway.
