Sums up modern Japanese parents perfectly. Would rather support their child then beat the shit out of them for being a dumbass. Back then parents would show no mercy but now meh... buncha softies.

@XL That might be appropriate in other circumstances in which one would then have a chance to reform and build a new life, but it would not be the case for an homicide. Awful as it may be to say this, most mothers would to the best of their abilities keep quiet about this kind of thing, and it would be the right choice on their part.
