hi i am 17 years of age i live in canda british columbia. this all happend at school in the mourning a kid got pushed into me so i pushed him back then he pushed me and ended up slaping me. i let it go and at breake time he was constaly agging me on calling me pussy but i did not do anything, finally at lunch time the kid that slapped me said somthing so i confronted him and we started to argue then he pushed me so i gave him a punch to the face beacuse i felt threatend, he then went to the ground and got back up ready to hit me so i was ready to hit him when his freind grabbed me and then the kid took a swing but he missed as i ducked he kneed me in the face. i walked away after that then the princaal came to me i got suspended and so did the other kid but it turned out that i had fractured his cheek bone. about 2 weeks after the cops came and picked me up and finger printed me and stuff and now im awaiting the court date. What will happen to me this is the first time i have been in trouble with the law and im very scared that this will wreck my future cause i want to join the army and you cant join the army with a criminal record also this is being held in youth court. so i would like to hear what might happen to me. Thanks
