§ 729.6

If a minor is found to be a person described in Section 602 by reason of the commission of an offense described in Section 241.2 or 243.2 of the Penal Code, the court shall, in addition to any other fine, sentence, or as a condition of probation, order the minor to attend counseling at the expense of the minor’s parents. The court shall take into consideration the ability of the minor’s parents consistent with Section 730.7 to pay, however, no minor shall be relieved of attending counseling because of the minor’s parents’ inability to pay for the counseling imposed by this section.
