I agree with the cops.

Maybe they will learn from this and not be thugs when they get older. If it was my child, I would still feel the same way.

To many parents try to bale their kids out of trouble and turn a blind eye. It's no wonder todays teens are disrespectful and mouthy to their parents. They think they can get away with anything and that mommy and daddy will be there to clean up their mess.

Kids need to start taking responsibility for their actions. And if that means a 7yr old gets caught stealing, then so be it! Now he knows what it's like to be arrested and may deter him from future crimes.
