Petition Action

Prosecute parents of under 18s who are repeatedly involved in crime or ASB

Petition Details

In the UK, a parent can be prosecuted for failing to ensure their child gets an education. There are no consequences for parents of children who are repeatedly involved in crime and anti-social behaviour however. Good behaviour starts at home and the law needs to change to reinforce this.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions which call for actions that are the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament. It's the responsibility of the police and Crown Prosecution Service to prosecute people for crimes.
