Petition Parents/carers of bullies should face jail time and/or a fine.

Children's suicide levels in the UK are on the rise and this is a direct result from being bullied. Bullying is a rampant problem in schools all across the UK, parents/carers need to take more responsibility for the actions of those in their care.

More details

In certain towns such as North Tonawand, New York have introduced laws where parents of bullies face a potential 15 days in prison or a $250 (£190) fine. The UK needs to follow suit in an attempt to resolve the ongoing problem that is bullying.
