Shelby grew up quickly. As a baby, she was quick to walk and talk. As a teenager, she was quick to date, to drink, and to experiment with drugs. She was found skipping class and smoking marijuana by the school resource officer. Shelby's parents have been divorced since she was six, when her dad went to prison for grand theft auto. When her mom is around, which isn't that often, they sometimes get high together. After Shelby was taken into custody, but before determining what would happen next, the police and a social worker took a detailed history of Shelby's home and school life. As Shelby's home life leaves much to be desired, and this is her first offense, what disposition will likely help Shelby the most?
A. Probation
B. Placement with relatives
C. Drug treatment
