Chicago lawmaker proposes $5K fine for parents with 'uncontrollable' children and require parents and teens to get family counseling

[ORDER_66]

I think it’s just a scare tactic. Just don’t do stuff to make the fine happen. Maybe he’s thinking these young people don’t want to put that unnecessary stress on their parent so maybe they’ll stop.

Scare tactics don't work unless you actually do it

I would do it the other way around and offer tax credits and other incentives to get people into relationship counseling, pre and postnatal classes, after school programs, etc. Whatever it takes to support and encourage healthy families. But y'all leaders would rather put that money towards bombs, who am I kidding.

i don't see why they can't give them money to feed, house, clothe and school their kids better. that might help with the attitudes
