I couldn’t disagree more. Good parents do not shield their children from the natural consequences of their choices/behaviors. Doing so is how we end up with serial predators who have never been held accountable for anything they’ve done because their parents are always cleaning up their messes. I would bet dollars to donuts that this is not BL’s first mess, just his biggest one. Same is true in the Murdaugh case, or both father and son.
This is a 23 year old man we're talking about here, not some child in his formative years. And we are not talking a night or two in jail here, either, to teach this young man a lesson.
Besides which, I wasn't saying it was good or bad, just that most parents would do it. I've seen it constantly. Most parents think their kids can do no wrong.
