I think two weeks is a little strong, but he's not my kid and that's your decision.
I do think *some* consequence is a good idea, so I thpt at the other boys' parents.
Sneaking out in general isn't a huge deal, it's not worse for a girl than a boy, and it's not like one needs to fritz out about it. But if one is going to impose a consequence, then it should be imposed equally.
C&F (Allison, I guess) is spot on in terms of patriarchy and such. In the *general sense* this is how The Double Standard is nurtured in this society, and it suuuuucks. I think *telling* your fellow parents this couldn't hurt, once or twice. Don't hammer it too much, because they'll get tired of it, but definitely bring it up. You might be the cause of thought in other people! Gosh.
(Whose fault is it if a girl/woman/person is raped?
