Awww, c'mon Will. Are you telling me that your parents knew exactly what you were up to, at any given moment, 24/7/365? I know mine didn't. And that is precisely when I would be doing crap, that hindsight now tells me, I had absolutely no business doing. And, I suspect, the same could easily be said for 99.9999% of the human population on this planet.

Look...I'm not saying that parents do not have responsibility. But, I also don't think that parents need to be punished for the misdeeds of thier offspring. Otherwise, the next generation will be bemoaning the leashes and collars that thier parents make them wear.
