At what point is a child not a child? If I had a child affected by this, I'd be calling for their heads. They made the cake and handed it out randomly to whoever would take it. If they have enough know-how to bake the cake, they had to have some idea what they were doing when they added bleach. (What - that wasn't vinegar?)
To be charged as a terrorist seems a bit like Ashcroft gone to wild. But this was a totally f'd up situation. I'd expect the father to step up and blame it on anything except personal responsibility.
Which goes back to the original question - at what age is someone personally responsible? And if they have a problem like the father says, why is he not at fault for keeping a better eye on her?
And that's only 1/2 the equation, the girl did not act alone.
