I agree, you did the right thing even though it was also the toughest.

I have a cousin that would have benefitted from doing some time in prison in his late teens. Instead his parents did whatever they could to keep him out of jail. To thank them he stole cash and valuables from them, their neighbors, and anyone else he could find. Now he's a thirty-something deadbeat with no permanent address, no permanent job, and no real prospects of ever improving his situation.
