Someone under 18 can still be out at night with someone over 18. If a youngster wants to get a job that keeps them out past curfew,the parents can pick them up. Having a curfew holds the parents responsible if the youngster is caught out at night. Thus making the parent keep an eye on their kids so the kids aren’t out getting into trouble.

Good thing we've got government making sure we're responsible.
