Rejected petition Convict Parents of Young Offenders

More details

Sick to death of hearing about repeat young offenders.

If their parents were made responsible for their childrens actions maybe they'd pay a bit more attention to what they get up to when out roaming the streets.

Parents should be charged with neglect and fined if their children offend.
