I think parents should be held more accountable for the behavior of their offspring, CMV

Parenting has a dramatic effect on a child's outcome in life.  I think we should have a system in place that reflects that.  If your child is good, you reap benefits.  If the child harms society, you don't.

Let's give parents a tax break (or EITC) that varies accordingly to their child's earnings, or something.  If the child is convicted of a criminal offense, the money decreases.

How do you account for many parents being in a better position to raise children than others? What about children with disabilities (physical and mental)? How about the simple fact that children aren't robots? While parents can influence them, they're ultimately their own conscious beings who make their own decisions.
