Should parents be criminally responsible for willful damage caused by Their children?
If the child is a minor then they are the responsibility of the parents and it is up to the parent to either deal with their child's problems by setting down rules of the house. If the child consistently gets into trouble then it is up to the parents to find a program or get their child to a child psychologist for help. If a parent has done all this and the child still gets into trouble with the police then it is out of the hands of the parents and Child Aid will have to cope with the problem. If the parent has made no attempt to curb their child's poor behavior and let them basically run loose as they wish then yes, the parents should be accountable for crimes of their children.

I assume for child support for the grandchild. Missouri has such a law whereas the minor mother can sue the parents of the minor father and her own parents for child support. You would need to check the state web site on statutes to search for a similar law.
