But throwing a rock through someones window didn't put your life
in danger (except for maybe by your grandfather). When you are out on
the street, riding a bike, if you don't use common sense you can be
killed. I agree maybe for the first offense try talking it out with the
parents, but if that doesn't work, then fine him. If talking to him
doesn't teach him the lesson, maybe having to pay a fine will. But I do
think this teaches kids at an early age that their parents can't always
get them out of a situation they have gotten themselves into. Would you
all be bitching if it was a 19 y/o that was riding his bike and hit a
car?
Sure, but what ever happened to
parents talking out a problem like this? When I was about 10 or
so I threw a rock through a window. That was illegal.
Destruction of private property you know. I suppose they could
have called the cops you know...I was even technically
trespassing. You know how it was handled? My grandfather
went to the people's window I broke and made a deal. He would
pay to fix the window and handle my punishment. You know
what? It worked. There is absolutely no reason that same
kind of common sense couldn't have worked in the issue being
discussed.

Last I checked, kid or adult not obeying the rules of the road
was illegal too. If they are going to be on their bikes in the road
they have to obey laws just like anyone else regardless of
age.

don't understand is why no one feels that a kid on a bike has to
obey rules of the road and rights of way the same as anyone else
on the road. I know....I'll just go out in my car and start
hitting people.
maybe some people feel that kids are just
kids and they can make mistakes. the kid wasnt out in the road
trying to run people off the street, he was playing with friends.
Last time i checked that wasnt a major crime however
hitting pedestrians is :))
