Do the parents of the children doing things like this know that their children are or even could be doing such things

It is not the desire to prosecute a child for an act such as this, but rather to help this child overcome such misdoings. If many parents knew their children were doing such as this, it would never happen. The little slogan on TV when the curfew time comes, is worth its weight in gold: “Do you know where your child is?”
