i think blaming bad kids on poor parenting is a bit short sighted. there's lot of parents that do their best and their children still turn out like bad apples and on the flip side there's a lot of shitty parents who's kids don't want to be shitty parents and end up being great role models.
whatever is to be blamed, it's still a terrible loss for the family and the kid's friends. i can't imagine what it would feel like to lose a family member... especially when the "apparent" reason isn't all that big of a deal.
