What does Deuteronomy 21:20 mean?

They’ll say to the elders, 'Our son is stubborn and rebellious. He won’t listen to us. He’s a glutton and a drunk.' Deuteronomy 21:20 - Modern Text Bible

(The parents publicly state their son’s behavior, making it clear he’s not just disobedient but also destructive.)
