Kid Criminals On The Rise? ... Oh England.

     Data released under the Freedom of Information Act revealed that a three-year-old boy in the South Yorkshire section of England was caught vandalizing cars back in May.


     The report also indicated that three other other children under the age of ten were caught damaging cars, and three others were involved with a robbery at a pool hall.
     Although the three-year-old boy was too young to be charged with any offenses, I wonder how the parents handled the kid when the police showed up at their door pulling him alongside. I reckon a stern talking-to and a long time-out isn't enough to steer him off a life of crime. I don't think beating the bejesus out of him with a wooden spoon (a threat used in my home to this day) would work either. 
     What are your suggestions?

As he came into the window, it was the sound of a crescendo. He came into her apartment, he left the bloodstains on the carpet. She ran underneath the table, he could see she was unable, so she ran into the bedroom. She was struck down, it was her doom. Annie, are you okay? So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie? ... You've been hit by a smooth criminal. (Smooth Criminal, Michael Jackson)
