ITS the kids that have got into trouble, therefore the parent hasn't caused the problem, therefore hasn't broken any housing laws. And if they have been in that property for several years they become sitting tenant.

Where does it state in the council regulations, that by being found guilty of a crime, breaks council regulations - l think the councils that are thinking of doing this, and treading on dicey legal grounds.

If they children have committed the crime, then they should go to prison - simple. Not punish the parent.

What about the parent who walked the youngster to court by force - will she be evicted ?

But in a lot of cases its the poor parenting that influences the child and then child knows nothing better then to do what their parents do so in my mind the parent is just as culpable as the child
