Petition Victim Retribution & Compensation Act against Liable Parents.

More details

I am keen to see a change to the law that empowers lawmakers the ability to hold parents accountable for their children's misdemeanor criminal activities, this would allow victims to pursue the parents for costs for criminal activities such as "Defacement, Destruction, Graffiti, Vandalism, Violence, Theft & Hate Crimes even personal injury by their children.

"A kid deliberately smashed my rear windscreen, why do I have to pay 300 pounds to have it replaced, should be only fair that the parent pays which seems logical to me".
