Hi Gwen
I am so sorry to hear of your problems with your son.
Since I am a realistic person, my advice to you would be to talk with the school counselors and see whats been happening in school for starters, definitely find out where he got the tatoo since you may have a case against the place unless someone gave him the tatoo privately which could be the case, make sure he is not a new recruit into any gangs since I hear that most gangs require some type of initiation and if you can afford it counseling for him. You should consider monitoring his computer use since so much can happen on line these days. Having a parent son talk into whats happening with him that makes him want to do these things can't hurt. Professional counseling should help or even writing to the Dr. Phil Show if you respect his advice.
Hang in there
