You said the child is a "problem child", but you didn't ask why the child brought the knife to school.
1) What kind of school is this? Is this kid dealing with gangs? Is this a public school? Does he feel unsafe ? Has anyone attacked him in the past? Is he a good student? Is he a potential drop-out?
2) Will the step-mom PLEASE explain if the child is bringing the knife "for self-defense" or just carrying it around for no reason.
3) If he is riding a bus, this sounds like a public school. public school = place where anyone from any walk of life (no matter how deranged they might be for the rest of their life) is sitting on the bus/or 2 feet away from you in a classroom. That alone could be frightening, depending on your neighborhood.
4) Please talk to your son and find out if he feels threatened at school. Warn him that someone else could grab his knife and slice him with it and then say "they" felt threatened. TELL him "worse-case" scenarios just for walking around with a weapon. Example: Like, when people have guns. Usually at some point, someone gets the gun and a fatal accident happens.
