Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's Robin and Kip now with Coreo. It's on Kiss
ninety seven to three. The sixteen year old kid that
made a fake profile got the Airbnb in East Brisbane
and then invited everyone on TikTok and got five hundred
other kids there. They trash the joint. He's now been
detained but.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Not charged because he's sixteen.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Because he's sixteen. So you've been there, Robin, You've had
a sixteen year old kid that's out of control.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Yes, So what I would do in this situation, I
think is a combination of both what you've said. I
think publicly shaming that child could really harm them for
the rest of their lives. Because of social media, you
can see the videos, so I wouldn't necessarily name them.
But what I would do was that I would get
that kid and because the school now knows and there
are video evidence, you would be able to identify other children.
(00:45):
I as a parent, would then contact those other parents
and say, we are in this situation, your child is
on video. What I am going to do is I'm
going to go round to that guy's house and my
child is going to apologize, and then he's going to
offer to pay for the damage. If you would like
to come with me with your children and take full
(01:05):
responsibility for the behavior that they have done, then come right,
because that is a moral question that each one of
those parents has to decide right. And you're also not
publicly shaming them, but you are making or giving them
the opportunity to take responsibility. It also means that your
kid has to be a shamed and shamed in front
(01:25):
of his peers along with the other people that were shaming.
I'd then go back to the school, and if those
kids are school friends, I would notify the school that
that's what I that I had done, and then I
would also say I expect that there's a punishment that
the school can we can work out together, because that
then public shames him within his community, because shaming is
(01:48):
the number one thing in an adolescence life that I
discovered makes all the difference. Otherwise it's blah blah blah
blah blah.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
They just don't want to be ashamed. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Financially so yes, I mean one of my kids phone
spent possibly three years of its life in my safe,
so you know that stuff starts to lose.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Currency.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Currency because if that happens, so much and things get escalated.
But if you make them take adult responsibility for childlike behavior,
but you do it in front of their peers, that
stuff works well for me.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
It didn't. Yeah that sounds good, Julie out of Northgate,
what do you think?
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Yeah, Look, the parents have to take full responsibility. The
child is not a legal age, which is why they're
under the Youth Justice Act. All those kids are on video.
But not only that, all the kids know the other
kids need to know all the names of all the kids.
All those parents need to come to a meeting. Everyone
has to agree to pay for whatever damage their child did.
I don't think the school actually should do anything. I
(02:51):
have to call you on that. A school job is
to teach your child, not to parent your child, and
I think too often we put their onus on the school.
They're there to teach, they're not there to bring our
children up. That's our job.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Yeah, but Julie, the school's already sent out a letter,
so they have involved themselves straight off the bat.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Because they've just been disgraced by someone's child. I don't
think there's any problem with naming and shaming. I actually
am the manager. I actually have one in my team
at the moment. I won't say where I work, obviously,
but they told me their past and they were a
very troubled child. They've grown into very mature adult and
I haven't held that against them. I know social media
(03:31):
is different, but if you look at social media, there's
lots of people in there who've done wrong and become good.
I think most people in the current a thought to
hold a bludge, especially when someone was a child, but
if they're not held accountable, they won't change the reason
this behavior continues as parents are going at someone else's problem.
It's the police, it's the school, it's not parents. If
your child threw that dyson and you better be down
(03:52):
at David Jones buying a Dyson and taking it around
to those people's house.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Yeah, thank you, Julie and Stacy of Ipswich, What do
you reckon?
Speaker 3 (04:01):
I think this responsibility lays completely with that kid that
organized the whole thing. This entitled generation just does my
head in.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
He made a choice to organize a party, and you're
what teenage boys are like.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
If there's a party, they'll just go along. Sarah, I
don't agree with the day each and yes, parents need
wouldn't they know that?
Speaker 1 (04:22):
But surely as a sixteen year old kid, if you're
at that party, you know you're doing the wrong thing.
If you're throwing the vacuum cleaner in the pool, it
isn't yours. I mean that's that you're old enough to
know that that's the wrong thing to do.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Oh for sure. And if it was my kid, I
would came out to drive. But the kids that organized this,
it made a conscious choice. He needs to be named
and shamed. This adult crime. At all time stuff should
come into play here. He should be named. How else
are they going to learn?
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Because these kids will just sit back and laugh this
because there's no consequences.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Stacey's phones a strange run and we'll have to let
you go, Stays because it was getting some weird echo
thing going on. But it's a yeah, it's an interesting
You can't put the whole blame on this one kid, though,
can you.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Well, I mean it was their idea and maybe there
are others involved, But then it's up to that kid
to say that.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
I like, I like the idea because honestly, my my
wholelande is my kid.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
I don't, I don't.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Yeah, you can't be to other.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Parents one hundred percent. You go, look, I know who
they are, we know all the names. Blah blah blah.
I'm giving them the chance to come with but I'm
only worried about my kid. I'm going to disipline them
the way I want to disciplin him, because that's just
the way I want to do it. But you give
the option, and I think that's that's the best way
to do it.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Well, good luck. I'm sure we'll hear
