Boot camp, fines for the parents and more if their off spring are young criminals in the making.

"If re-elected, the party would introduce a new Young Serious Offender (YSO) classification.

National would also introduce the ability for police to fine parents $200 if their child under the age of 14 is caught "walking the streets without supervision" between 12am and 5am.

Parents would also have court orders directed at a young person's parent recorded on the parent's criminal record."

I bet some parents won't be too happy if national gets back in and this becomes law.
