They don't need forgiveness since they didn't do the crime. I agree.

I don't agree they didn't do a crime. I agree they don't need forgiveness because I would never forgive them for their lack of parenting causing the deaths of all those children. Eric and Dylan were still minors and as such their parents are responsible for any and everything they did. Who bought their black coats? Who bought the guns? Who bought the pipe bombs? It doesn't matter if the parents wrapped a pipe bomb up in pretty ribbons for them but they did furnish the money, the time, the lack of supervison, and the lack of responsiblity.

I changed my mind since learning a few facts about the parents...very skeptical to say the least of their 'parenting skills'.

My thoughts exactly.

The parents claim they didn't know, but it's a kind of not-knowing that I call "willful ignorance". They chose not to "know". Things were going gravely wrong and they looked the other way..... (kept feeding money to it, though.)
