Hmmm - did somebody actually send their kid out to vandalize signs? And what exactly did he touch?

Here's the story! The guy wired it up to a pet fence thingy. Worth the read - a tale of liberal parenting at it's finest.

good article, thanks for the post. don't think i would remove the charge.

It seems like a completely reasonable way to protect your property without excessive force.
I also don't believe the child was "trying to see how it was constructed".
