lol, the parents of the kid that jumped off of the bridge are partly responsible?

Community service is enough? Wow.
Everyone has their opinions but I just don't understand how people would be OK with a simple slap on the wrist.
We may be a predominately Christian nation but that still doesn't avoid proper punishment. To understand Christianity you need to know the Old Testament too(IMO) and well...God wasn't too nice back then lol.
Just to play Devil's advocate here...how do we know what's on their mind/conscious? They haven't been interviewed to my knowledge. They may only be remorseful because they got caught. Remember they tried doing this twice to the kid.
Maybe ruining their lives may be a bit harsh on my part and I'll admit that. However a simple slap on the wrist involving community service and talking to some gay group is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too minor. They could face up to 5yrs in jail, they BETTER see some of that.
