This truly is a difficult situation. I may verbalize this poorly, so bear with me.
It is so important to me that my children (all of us really) are accountable for their own behavior. I would be very disappointed if one would behave questionably as a reaction to someone elses bad behavior. Two wrongs do not make a right. However morals are subjective in my opinion.
For example I do not believe in fighting. When my eldest was in the third grade I was called to the school because my son was involved in a fight. This was very out of character for him. When I questioned him I discovered he jumped in to defend a smaller friend being attacked by three older, bigger boys. As anti-violence as I am, I could not fault him for this.
