I was thinking more about your idea of holding parents liable for their kids actions as a deterrant to scbool shootings
One big concern for that is, especially if applied more generally, would be a huge deterrant for parents to adopt problem children, which coukd have a devestating effect on how these kids grow up if all the most trouble prone kids never get adopted.
Thats ehy i said especially if its applied more generally... if my kid stealing a car means i get arrested for theft, that could be an issue
Yea, i hear ya. Fair.
@freemo @gpowerf @realcaseyrollins
Well, here parents are liable for their (underage) kids' actions too. Not jailtime, but more like financial and justice consequences. You can bet that the parents will be more strict to the problem child then.
@trinsec @gpowerf @realcaseyrollins
Financial.liability might make more sense, i woukd t support even that but its at least more reasonable.
@freemo @realcaseyrollins I can see it then! Because I’d happily adopt a kid that’s liable to steal car, but not one that’s going to shoot me at night.
