Well it's about time

First bit of common sense I've seen from the World of Politics for a while, this..

The government is proposing to fine the parents of children/teenagers who behave anti-socially.

About bloody time, I say.
These parents have obviously done fuck all about the behaviour of their offspring in the past, so it's about time they sat up and realised that parental responsibility means more than just claiming child benefit on behalf of the little fucked up brats who go round smashing up hard working people's property. And giving ASBO's to the little shites themselves does no good, as they collect 'em like we used to collect Panini football stickers and wear them with pride.
The teenage hooligans have no fear of the police (who they know cannot touch them) or respect for the locality for which they live in. However, maybe they will not be granted as much freedom to commit acts of vandalism and violence if it hits mummy and daddy in the pocket.
Well done John Reid, I've been saying this should be done for months and months.

Do you really think this will make any difference ?

Yes.
Most of the reason they're on the street in the first place is because their parents don't give a toss where they are/what they're doing. At least if fines/prison sentences were threatened, people might start taking a little more responsibility in raising their little brats.

In the cases where they have control over there children and/or they care yes. Otherwise, it wont make the slightest difference.
