I raised 5 kids-——if one of mine had pulled a prank like this believe me it wouldn’t have been pretty.

[Blood of Tyrants]

About as funny as drowning puppies.

Stupid kids. No cell phones for a few years.

First of all those two young girls should be given the maximum sentence for the crimes.

Then there is this little item :

Mrs St Baker said her daughter Tiana, 17, who had got her licence that day, was out with her brother Ethan, 15, when someone claiming to be a nurse from Griffith District Hospital telephoned about 10:30pm.

So can anyone explain to me why any parent would allow a teenager that had received their license that day would be allowed to be out driving at 10:20 PM.

The 18-year-old will face Griffith Local Court on October 10 while the 16-year-old will face charges under the Child Offenders Act. The maximum penalty is five years' jail.

...I hope around the third night of crying in their cell they get to actually think about their joke

[GovernmentShrinker]

The media could help by not referring to this sort of thing as a “prank”. Short-sheeting someone’s bed at summer camp is a “prank”. Deliberately trying to convince someone that their child has been grievously injured and may die is nothing of the sort.

The girls should get a free trip to Singapore and a free flogging while there. A 10 year ban on cellphone usage would also be appropriate, and a couple of thousand hours of community service in the local hospital.

And what in the h*ll was so funny about this? What self-centered idiots. Ringing a doorbell and running away is a practical joke. Slipping a whoopee cushion under someone is a practical joke. Calling someone and telling her that her child is in critical condition due to a car crash is NOT. What if the parents who went to the hospital that night ended up in a wreck themselves because fear and grief distracted them from the road? What were those punks THINKING?

There is something really wrong with society when some kids think that this is funny.

The only possible good that I can see coming from this is that the "near tragedy" may bring some of the targeted families closer together.

Hold them by their heels over the edge of the Grand Canyon. Keep telling them the holder is getting very tired. Then pass them to another holder. Do this 8 hours a day for a month.

[Ptarmigan]

What is their major malfunction? What a bunch of scumbags. They need a nice a** whooping.

[Shery]

I hope they serve time, even if it is 6 months. Might give them the wake-up call they need to make some right choices after that. Some people might’ve been hurt rushing to the hospital or someone could’ve had a heart attack. This is NOT funny!
