When a child (and by that I mean anyone below the age of majority) gets into trouble, who is responsible? Who must take responsibility? The State? The school? ? A stranger? No... the parents. They are responsible for their children until they are 18 years old. Parents should not be allowed to sidestep their responsibilities and children should be instilled with the knowledge that their parents will face consequences for their badness. In my humble opinion, of course.
