It's an example of how society is getting ridiculous... that people think that rules do not apply to them, and they should be able to get away with doing whatever they want.
The father is the one who's wasting the courts time... A lollipop is food. The kid was sucking the lollipop. He was guilty. pay the fine and move on.

But where does it end?
Had the kid been eating a Tic Tac, would that be a $300 fine?
A cough drop?
A Listerine breath stip?
No, common sense was lost in the shuffle.
If the kid had been warned or if he had a previous history of trouble, then fine him.
But out of the blue for a sucker is silly.
