“Intentional Torts”
Children are children however the question asked is should they
be liable for their own intentional torts or should the parent
and/or guardian be liable. Would my argument change if the
injured party is the child themselves or an adult?
According to Schubert (2015) an intentional tort is “a civil
wrong in which the defendant is alleged to have intentionally
interfered with the plaintiff’s person, reputation, or property
(p.375).” If a child’s conduct reflects that they have
intentionally committed a civil wrong then yes, they should be
held liable. However, there is another as if the child is not at
the age of knowing right from wrong then the child needs to be
taught and corrected therefore the parent and/or guardian needs
to be held liable.
If the act is against the child themselves then the parent and/or
guardian is liable no question asked. For a parent and/or
guardian are the ones who are to protect children when they
cannot protect themselves. We are the voice for them when they
cannot speak for themselves.
If the act is against an adult, then I ask as to why this act
occurred. How did it happen and why, for a child is not going to
attack an adult without cause or reason.
In conclusion, children need to be held accountable for their
actions within reason. If I child does not no better, then how
can he be held liable for his ignorance? There is a difference
between stupidity and ignorance for ignorance is not knowing
and stupidity is knowing and choosing to continue anyhow.

I believe that a child should be held for their own intentional
torts. One of my arguments would be the word “intentional”.
That would mean that the child intentionally interfered with
some one person, property, or reputation. I believe that some
parents do raised their children to obey the laws and hold their
children accountable for their actions. However when its
intentional i think that beyond a parent controls. Like if a
parent gives a child a car for their sweet 16th birthday and a
month later the child is involve in a car accident that leaves a
child an d mother dead. The child should be held responsible
even though it was accident. When its intentional it would also
depend on the person mindset at the time. Which makes me
believe it was o purpose when its an accident .It would be some
type of negligence.
My argument would not change if if the party was a child or
adult i believe that people should be accountable for their
actions whether they are intentional or negligence . I do not
think parents should be responsible for their children actions.
What if a single mom at work and she have directed her child
to go home straight from and do not come back outside until she
gets home. Then the child calls his mother at work to let her
know that they are home from and then later that the mother
receives a call at work that she must report to the police
department. When she get their they inform her son was joy
riding with his friends and the car struck a tree? How would you
respond? I would be extremely devastated but at the same time
the child disobedience to his mother caused him his life who
will be punished if everyone is dead,

Valerie Gonzalez Intentional Torts”Children are children ho.docx

  • 1. Valerie Gonzalez “Intentional Torts” Children are children however the question asked is should they be liable for their own intentional torts or should the parent and/or guardian be liable. Would my argument change if the injured party is the child themselves or an adult? According to Schubert (2015) an intentional tort is “a civil wrong in which the defendant is alleged to have intentionally interfered with the plaintiff’s person, reputation, or property (p.375).” If a child’s conduct reflects that they have intentionally committed a civil wrong then yes, they should be held liable. However, there is another as if the child is not at the age of knowing right from wrong then the child needs to be taught and corrected therefore the parent and/or guardian needs to be held liable. If the act is against the child themselves then the parent and/or guardian is liable no question asked. For a parent and/or guardian are the ones who are to protect children when they cannot protect themselves. We are the voice for them when they cannot speak for themselves. If the act is against an adult, then I ask as to why this act occurred. How did it happen and why, for a child is not going to attack an adult without cause or reason. In conclusion, children need to be held accountable for their actions within reason. If I child does not no better, then how can he be held liable for his ignorance? There is a difference between stupidity and ignorance for ignorance is not knowing and stupidity is knowing and choosing to continue anyhow. References Schubert, F. A. (2015).

  • 2. Sylvia Patterson I believe that a child should be held for their own intentional torts. One of my arguments would be the word “intentional”. That would mean that the child intentionally interfered with some one person, property, or reputation. I believe that some parents do raised their children to obey the laws and hold their children accountable for their actions. However when its intentional i think that beyond a parent controls. Like if a parent gives a child a car for their sweet 16th birthday and a month later the child is involve in a car accident that leaves a child an d mother dead. The child should be held responsible even though it was accident. When its intentional it would also depend on the person mindset at the time. Which makes me believe it was o purpose when its an accident .It would be some type of negligence. My argument would not change if if the party was a child or adult i believe that people should be accountable for their actions whether they are intentional or negligence . I do not think parents should be responsible for their children actions. What if a single mom at work and she have directed her child to go home straight from and do not come back outside until she gets home. Then the child calls his mother at work to let her know that they are home from and then later that the mother receives a call at work that she must report to the police department. When she get their they inform her son was joy riding with his friends and the car struck a tree? How would you respond? I would be extremely devastated but at the same time the child disobedience to his mother caused him his life who will be punished if everyone is dead, less
