How is leaving punishment to parents rather than the government "liberal"?

Same reason that punishments for other crimes are dispensed by judges and not parents. Unless one is a Kennedy.

Judges should punish real crimes with actual victims, like Mary Jo Kopechne. Victimless youth "crimes" should be punished at parents' discretion.
