Who should be held responsible for the wrong actions of a
child
Use synonyms
? Should caretakers be questioned about it or just the committer? I am of the opinion that
parents

 are the only authority to look after and train a
child
Use synonyms
;
therefore
Linking Words
, who else could be blamed if not them? First of all, the character of the children certainly depends on the training they receive from their
parents

 , and they could be held legally responsible if their kid does anything illegal. To elaborate, a kid at a younger
age

 learning process.
Consequently

, if he had spoiled at that part of the
age

 and gained a detrimental experience,
then
Linking Words
 the only individuals worth blaming are the
parents

.
Therefore

 as well.
Additionally

 the kid, resulting in a penalty or a fine for them.
Hence

 cases
besides

 arresting the

 should legally be questioned for the wrongdoings of their kids. From my perspective, it is certainly the only logical case;
otherwise
