AFTER your story (LET, October 22), of the firefighters being pelted with stones while trying to put out the fires that youngsters had started, isn't it about time now that the parents of these children were made to be accountable for their offsprings' actions?
For far too long young thugs have known that the police can't touch them and have behaved accordingly. Surely the time has now come to force parents to take responsibility.
