I don't know about this specific instance, but I do think there would be benefits to holding parents accountable for a juvenile's criminal behavior. And while I agree that a parent can't supervise a child 100% of the time, I think that there is more that can be done to raise children than drop them off at the mall on Friday and Saturday nights.
The ADHD crutch needs to be kicked out from under a lot of people as well.
