Perfect!Here this krap is not messed with! First of all, everyone knows everyone else. So the embarrassment of doing something stupid, getting caught, and facing people come into play. Second, we know that our kids are treasures. So when they mess up, not only do they have to face the legal consequences but they have to face their peers afterwards, and their peers will express their unhappiness quite clearly.
Several years ago a few smart butts from our local school decided to ride around and egg cars. Yeah, not here, folks.....the kids were caught, they were detained, they went to court and were fined - which they and not their parents had to pay. How’d they get caught? The other kids in school didn’t think it was amusing as the eggers did.
