He's ten and he f..ked up. If I'm right then community service might be the answer.
Perhaps moping the firehouse for awhile.

Yeah, boys and girls love to play with fire. Heck, the Boy Scouts even have a supposedly secret group within their organization whose express purpose is to promote playing with fire (more or less).
I think this is a great service learning opportunity for this 10-year-old. Put him on probation with a community service requirement. It'll get taken off his record once he's an adult, but he can still learn a good lesson by serving others. Having the parents do community service alongside their son would be great for the whole family.
