    Question: Are parents responsible for kid's actions?

    Answer: According to Arizona law, a parent or legal guardian of a person who is under 18 years of age shall exercise reasonable care, supervision, protection and control over the minor child. Parents can be held responsible for some of the children's actions. They may be ordered to pay money to victims of their children's offenses. It depends on what the actions are and if they violate laws.

    I dont think that paresnts should be held responsible foe their childrens actions. Most parents believe that they have raised there kid the right way and trust in them. Why punish them for actions that most of the time they are not aware of.
