Should parent be responsible for childrens actions?
I do believe a parent is responsible for their children's actions. Being a parent is a big responsibility, and a large part of parenting is giving guidance, instruction, and being an example to them. If a child does something wrong, a parent needs to first ask his or herself what could have been done to prevent it, and what must be done to remedy the situation. This could be a great teaching moment for a parent, to display to a child the responsibility of making amends for the wrongs committed. A child needs to know right from wrong first, and then be shown by example the parents understanding of right and wrong.
