Well personally - since this is ONE county over from where Dude is to be in court soon/whenever -
IT JUST FREAKED ME OUT. I can see all these local area judges getting together in a nice restaurant, then having brandy and cigars and saying "You know the parents of these kids aren't doing enough - or You know if we started making ridiculous sentences maybe these kids would get the message or - I need to be seen, going to run for council next term -"
The power these men wield is scary to the Mom of a difficult child.
