Comments about ‘Two arrested in dollar store slaying; police seeking female driver’

Im glad they caught these suspects...but whats scarier is the fact they are kids!!! where the heck are their parents?? Do their parents even know what their kids are up to? Apparently not due to the fact they are barely 18 and now are gonna be charged with murder and robbery and will hopefully be spending the rest of their lives in prison...and what for? For taking a few hundred dollars from a cooperating person that did not need to be killed!

I have to agree with Shannon, where are the parents? That is the age old question that will never be answered. The reason kids do this stuff is for the "respect" they will get. Some kids think it is worth messing up their life, for "street respect". While these two are in prison for the rest of their life, their friends will remember them for about a month, and soon forget them. But what are friends for?

Where WERE the parents? These "kids" were robbing dozens of places the past few weeks and must have been spending the money somewhere, if my kids came home with money or things they bought and didn't have a job I would certainly ask how they got it. I don't go to church but my kids know right from wrong and they WORK for a living, they don't take others hard earned money. I am a single parent and the parents of these "kids" have no excuse in my opinion.

What it does not say about the second juvenile arrested was that he is 13 years old. There was an interview with that child's father on one of the local TV stations and all he said was that I just don't know what went wrong, or something to that effect. Thirteen is a seventh grader!! How can a parent allow such a young child to get into this situation? I think that the parents should be charged with something for allowing this to happen.

THE OLDER TWO ARE 18 AND 19 THEY KNOW WRONG FROM RIGHT AND THEY DESERVE THEIR OWN PUNISHMENT. THEIR PARENTS CAN ONLY DO SO MUCH AND WHEN THESE KIDS ARENT LIVING UNDER THEIR ROOFS WHAT CAN THEY DO? OH YOUR GROUNDED WHEN YOU DONT EVEN LIVE HERE. OR THEY RUN AWAY FROM HOME AND ACT STUPID BECAUSE THEY THINK THEY CAN DO WHAT THEY WANT BECAUSE THEY ARENT UNDER THEIR PARENTS CONTROL OR BECAUSE THEY THINK THEY ARE OLD ENOUGH. AND NOW DAYS IF A PARENT SPANK THEIR CHILD ITS CHILD ABUSE SO THEY CANT WIN EITHER WAY. AND THE YOUNGER ONE IS OUT RUNNING AROUND WITH THESE OLDER KIDS AND PROBABLY STAY WITH THEM SAYING HES AT ONE OF HIS FRIENDS HOUSES. THESE PARENTS SHOULD HAVE NEVER EVEN BEEN BROUGHT UP IN THESE COMMENTS BECAUSE ITS NOT THEM DOING IT ITS THEIR KIDS WRONG DOING AND THEY MIGHT BE A BETTER PARENT THAN YOU, THEY MAY HAVE JUST MADE A MISTAKE BY LETTING THEM GO OUT WITH THE WRONG FRIENDS.
