Not an ass-beating.
Being violent to a child who is already having problems with violence? You don't have to be a social worker to see that would be totally wrong.
'Oh look, there's a fire over there, guess I'll go dump some gas on it, and it will go out.'
I've worked with enough kids that I can tell you if this kid is given a chance to figure out what his problem is, to exorcise it from his system, he'll feel much better, and things will gradually get better. I'd be willing to bet that Bubba is miserable about something, he doesn't want to feel like that, he doesn't want to be a 'prick'. Give him some help to sort things out, after all, he's only a child.
