Who is responsible for the criminal acts of children? Whose job is it to civilize & socialize children?

If I put some dogs in my backyard, & do nothing but neglect & abuse them, who is at fault if these maladjusted, essentially WILD, dogs get out & kill a child? Isn't that criminal neglect? Shouldn't the owner, absent or not, be held criminally liable?

Many times, parents go beyond mere neglect by ignoring obvious criminal behavior. Demaquis’ aunt seems eager to commit perjury with her eggs & grits story. I'll bet she & the mother know a bunch about Demarquis’ activities. Harboring a criminal? Violations of multiple gun laws? Stolen goods in the house?

(I think there is a correlation between the intensity of the wailing & thrashing about, & the level of complicity in the crimes of their children.)

We must have strong laws that hold BOTH parents criminally responsible for the criminal acts of their minor children. Neglect is just as bad as physical abuse. Abandonment is worse.

Perhaps, if the entitlement class had to actually RAISE their kids instead of just having them to get more entitlements, they might consider whether having kids they care nothing about is such a wise investment. Perhaps absent fathers would pay a price for their irresponsible promiscuity.

The government. Just put the kids in the government schools. They'll handle everything.

Cultural pathology. Toss the ghastly perps into prison for the rest of their useless lives.

That is an interesting poem as well.

“......Antonio’s father, Luis Santiago, who was arrested and jailed briefly after the shooting when his grief overwhelmed him and he began screaming at West, blaming her for their son’s death.

“I’m not upset with the boys,” Santiago said Saturday of the two teenagers charged with killing his son. “They didn’t have a good upbringing.”.......”
*************************************************************************
The poor Mother...this despicable, poor excuse of a father/husband is “not upset with the ‘boys’” who murdered his infant son but instead blames the baby’s mother.

What the hell kind of community do they have in Brunswick, Georgia? What’s next...jury nullification? Or designation of “the boys” as community heroes & victims of whitey?

I’m guessing that no Ben Carson will be coming out of this community anytime soon!
