No love lost in Batavia.
Good to see a parent held accountable for their child's actions.
it's sad to me that a free
it's sad to me that a free American can have his/her liberty compromised solely due to age.
as for the parent being held accountable for the actions of their child, what ever happened to being accountable for your OWN actions.? might as well blame me.
Our society has agreed that
Our society has agreed that individuals under the age of 18 are not able to share in many rights that "adults" possess. This is nothing new. Minors are the responsibility of their parents.

Parents are held responsible
Parents are held responsible for curfew violations, and it is a local, city, municipal law, if you read it carefully. The shoplifting is a State penal law offense
David - Not everything is
David - Not everything is black and white. Parents should have control over when their minor kids are out and about. Mine certainly did.
