I think 15 day is an exaggeration .These kids do all this because they want to. This is not the parents fault the bullies should pay the $250 all of this is not the parents fault!!This is my opinion.

I think parents should pay a fine because bullying is a very bad thing and can cause serious consequences,also a parent of a bully could make a their son/daughter give them money to make them pay for the fine of bullying someone.Finally, if a parent goes to jail for 15 days because their son/daughter has done continued bullying,the parents could make a consequence that the bully has to do.

No! I think that the kids should be punished for when they do something there not expected to do like bullying.

In my opinion I think parents should not be punished because kids will learn not to bully by them self and parents can change there children by talking to them.Parents can punish their kids.

No! I think Parents should not be charged with a $250 fine or go to jail for 15 days because if a kid was at home and grounded and wasn't allowed to watch t.v. and his or her parents was not at home also his or her favorite show was on he or she would probably watch it.Parents have control over kids and could tell them whats right and whats wrong  but kids do not always listen to their parents.Some kids think bullying is funny. $250 is a lot of money and some family's could use it for food or useful goods or services.This is why I think the parents of bully's should not be punished.

I think parents of bullies should not be punished because it should be the bullies that should be punished not the parents. Another reason is that parents teach their kids to be kind. And the parents cant see how their kids are acting in school like if their child is bulling other kids.

# data[].attributes.body
I think No because the parent did not do nothing to make their kids act these way , also the article said that parents could get 15 days in jail I think that is not necessary because that would put parents in a bad situation.

# data[].attributes.body
No because i think teachers need to focus on the bully not the parents.The teachers need to keep a eye out for bullying while teaching.

# data[].attributes.body
I think parents should not be punished for their kids behavior because their child acted that way so the child should be punished.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the parents child should be punished because the parents don 't need to take the blame. There child needs to learn consequence's not there parents.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the parents of bullies should pay a fine of $250 if their kid is bullying.Instead their parents should go to jail for 15 days. School counselors expect bullies not to do anything bad.

# data[].attributes.body
l think parents should not be punished because it would be more effective if you punished the child not the parent of the child.And some times the parents don't have any thing to do with child's behavior,and the way they act in school!

# data[].attributes.body
I think no because parents don't  know what there  children are doing in school Children are the one that should be punished because there the one that's doing the bullying not the parent's. When somebody tell on him and he gets in trouble that means there parents should deal with him. I think parents shouldn't be in jail for 15 days.

# data[].attributes.body
I think no,because the bully should get punished for what he or she done and not the parents,also some family's need that money for rent or other things that are helpful,like food.

# data[].attributes.body
I think parents should get punished because, they need to talk to their child about bullying. If their child still does it and they don't do anything then they need to face the consequences for their actions. If kids keep doing it then their parents need to talk to them.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that they should not be punished because it would not be fair if the parent had to go to prison because of their child's behavior.Also the parents child should be punished by getting expelled or getting suspended and they could punish the student by taking one of their electronic.

# data[].attributes.body
No because I don" think your parents should have to take the blame for what there children have done because that is not fair for the parents there not bulling there kids are

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, the kids should get punished. The parent's should not have to pay the money. The kids made that choice, and it was there problem

# data[].attributes.body
I think parents should not be punished because the parents should be punishing their kids. Teaching their kids not to bully other kids and show them how to show their feelings other way than bullying others. They should at least try to be in their children live and know what they are doing at school and at other places.

# data[].attributes.body
I do not think that parents should be punished for their child's behavior because in the article, it says that parents can't control the way their kids act in school, and that some parents need the money for other things.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion I think that the parents of a bully should not be punished. The kid that is bullying the other kids should be responsible for their grades and  their behavior in school. So if they get caught bullying the bully should pay the price.

# data[].attributes.body
I think parents should not be punish for their child bulling.Because 15 days in jail is ridiculous and paying a 250$ fine.You can not control your kids actions so if you tell them to stop bulling they will most likely still do it so it is not fair for adults that can not control there kids actions should be punish if anything the kids should be punish for what they did.

I think parents should not be punished because  the parents have no effect on what their children and what they do .Parents should teach their children to be nice,parents aren't the ones who do it so they shouldn't be punished!
