I'm not surprised kids take dares. I did. I jumped over tops of buildings in New York. They were only a foot apart but still could have broke my neck had I not made it. The group that pulverized the old Hotel Beaumont was a different story. Tik Tok, you know. Wonderful site. Chinese, I think. The kids were caught and reprimanded to their parents in lieu of being arrested.dd You know what? If my friends and I had dones that and got caught, we wou have pleaded with the police to please take us to jail. Why? Death would have been too kind to describe what would have happened when we got home. My dad would have beaten the crap out of me, then turned me over to my mom for more of the same. Then the real punishment would have begun. No movies, no dessert an the next day, another beaing or two. Destroying public property?? As bad as killing someone. That was then, this is now. We must understand our kids. It's covid, it's trans trouble, it's peer pressure, the deprevtion of not being able to have a four day school week. Plus mom works hard and so does dad and they don't have the time to nurture. Stop with the pony poop. Put em in jail for 30 days, maybe 30 hours to find out what real criminals do. (to themsleves and others.) Sorry, no pity party. Let em work out every dollars worth of damage they caused. No senior prom, no phone, no lolly coddling. Ain't gonna happen. They'll be sent to a shrink to get to the root of their problems, instead of someone getting some heat to the root of their rear end.
