There are two areas to be aware of, the civil side and the criminal side. Yes, a parent can be sued for any damages incurred by their dependents under a civil proceeding. Depending on the amount of damage, it may go to small claims court. If there are substantial damages, there may be more serious proceedings. As far as criminal matter, the state may choose to prosecute the youth. It depends on the record of the youth and the nature of the vandalism. If the vandalism is intentional the parent is responsible.
