...can u proofread for me.? Why or why not parents should be held accountable for their child’s actions.
Parents are ultimately responsible for their children's behavior. Parents have to realize that children, just like anybody else in this world, can do a great deal of harm. Some children can be unbelievably callous and vicious. When they want their way, nothing else matters. There have been several stories on small children beating their parents, and while they might not have been able to do much damage, even a kick to a knee can incapacitate a grown up.
In the eyes of the law, the child is like a parent's property. When the child turns 18, and becomes an adult, the parent ceases to be legally responsible. That is why some parents have disowned their children because they realize they cannot control them, and hence refuse to be responsible for their actions.
Too many parents don't take the damage their children can do seriously enough. Teens often vandalize property, without realizing that, if you damage someone's car, the owner may not be able to drive to work, and this could jeopardize his employment. How about throwing rocks through windows? This happened to me, and by strange coincidence, I happened to sleep in a different bedroom that night; otherwise I would have been covered in broken glass since my bed was right below the window. A small shard of glass in my eye could have blinded me.
If parents aren't held responsible, they will certainly take their role as parent less seriously. If there are no consequences to them for their child's behavior, they will not take the steps necessary to make sure the child behaves. Hence, the parent is actually enabling the child to misbehave. The child knows he will not be disciplined, and therefore can follow whatever wild urges most greatly amuse him.
No one can make the decision for the child; the child chooses for themself what they do, so they should have to face the punishment for their actions, which is why they have come up with all of these probations for children. Parents can’t always be watching their children all the time, so the parents won't even know when their child is getting into trouble. If the young person sneaks out in the middle of the night and goes and robs a bank, what can the parents do? The only reason that kids are doing this because of bad parenting or they are just not getting enough attention from their parents, but it is usually influenced by other things, school for one, television another, peers for a third and sometimes the internet. The parents can block certain channels or websites, but the kids can get the craziest ideas from the littlest television shows if you think about it. There are just too many bad examples of drugs, sex, and any other bad things you can imagine everywhere. It is impossible to hide all of it because everywhere you turn there are always bad influential things around. Parents can only do so much to teach their child right from wrong, and then it is up to the child to decide their actions.
It all depends on the situation. Parents do everything possible to try to raise their children to be well behaved but that does not mean that the child won't be rebellious and steal, vandalize, or commit other crimes. If the parent is being neglectful and not paying attention to their child then yes there should be punishment for them as well. For example, if the parent is to busy partying, working in excess, or abusing their children in some way then they should be held partly responsible. On the other side there are some kids who have such strong personalities that they just make bad decisions, even with good guidance. Those young people should be held completely responsible.
A parent is always legally responsible for their child’s action as long as the child is under 18 years old. There are only so many things parents can teach their kids until they learn to do things on their own and are responsible for their own actions. Some parents appear to be perfect and provide everything for their kids and then their offspring turn around and slap them in the face by not abiding by that law. The parents who are then punished are humiliated and this doesn't do very much for the kids who feel no remorse. There are others who don't care about what their kids do. How should the powers be differentiated between the two? There are many things to consider, especially the age of the offender? Logically speaking, a person who is just under the legal adult age would be more responsible for their own actions than an eight year old. Should their parents be blamed then?
