Well, even if the PS2 was paid for by the mother, it doesn't sound like she was the one using it. My guess is that it was given to the kid as a gift. Which makes it his, even if he didn't pay for it.

This seems like a better form of punishment than simply making him pay for the stuff he broke/drank. There's a difference between breaking a window with a baseball and stealing a $120 bottle of wine. This kid is probably going to want to play his PS2, only he won't be able to, because his parents sold it after he acted like an idiot. Every time he wants to play, he'll probably kick himself for doing what he did.

Either that, or he'll just hate his family and start acting like an even bigger ass.

Either way, the ebay thing is pretty damn funny.
