Your probably right...but...I have also seen a lot of studies showing that the more involved the parent is with the child (in a positive way) the less chances are for that child to end up in the criminal justice system.
There is less likely hood of a child getting in trouble if they are supervised and have structured activities. If you just let your kids go where they want, when they want and with whomever they want...I think they will find trouble.
