Ask HN: How to get my blackhat child on the straight and narrow?

One of my sons is interested in hacking and hacking-adjacent technology - he maintains a popular list of proxies that circumvent his school network, and his favorite possession is his flipper zero which he's been watching youtube videos on and keeps trying new types of interactions with it. He's gotten in trouble before for using some kind of tool to crash in-class kahoot, and most recently he took his flipper out into the neighborhood and tried to mess with the ring doorbells of strangers. I really enjoy the creativity, ingenuity, and entrepreneurial spirit he brings to these activities, but right now it seems like he's on a path that is going to get him expelled and/or arrested. Does anyone else have experience with kids like this, and did anything work to get them back on track without destroying their love of technology? I'm worried coming down too hard will just move this behavior into the shadows rather than eliminating it.
