This goes WAY beyond parenting issues. This woman enticed children to come to her home for illegal activities. The slap on the wrist ‘hosting’ law is a pile of crap. Socialite parents in the neighborhood will just make an effort to not get busted at the next party. If ‘Shanta down the block’ gets something appropriate, say 3 years in a state penitentiary and a $50,000 fine, the idea to bring children into your home to illegally serve them drugs is over in that neighborhood. What would happen if a bar owner brought over 100 teenagers into a bar and served them? Again this is worse, as being a neighborhood parent somehow makes this OK versus a drinking establishment doing it. Its actually a very dastardly and somewhat evil decision abuse children this way.
