Let me get this straight:

His dad supplied alcohol to his minor son and then let him roam around with 'friends', who also drink. But Dad is the one who is going to get all threatening and noisy when the consequences of *his* actions contribute to minor son's troubles. Yeah, great parenting skills there. Is alchohol a problem with this family?

Is there anyway you can be with your god-son when he breaks the news to dear ol' dad and mum? Maybe the presence of a more-or-less neutral third party pointing out that Dad made a whopper of a boo-boo here and is darn lucky he isn't seeing the police at *his* door to make the folks take a less confrontational position. In VA, they'd be arresting Dad.

Hopefully this will show your god-son to be a little more careful with both friends and family, none of whom seem to have his best interests at heart. I'm glad he has you.
