Does the child have to pay for scratching the car?

In daily life, if parents take their children out without supervision, the children will get into trouble, and parents need to take responsibility for their children, and sometimes they even have to pay a lot of money. Recently, a child scratched 1 new cars for sale in Guilin, Guangxi, and the parents finally paid high compensation.

A few days ago, while a child and his parents were looking at cars in the car sales hall in Guangxi, they scratched 1 cars with pebbles while adults were not paying attention. Finally, after mediation by the people's court before filing a case, both parties voluntarily gave up the loss assessment, and Mr. and Mrs. Zhao compensated the car sales company for 7, yuan in one lump sum. In fact, it is not uncommon for children to scratch car paint. In Jiangsu, there was an incident in which an 8-year-old boy scratched 8 cars and his parents compensated 7, yuan.

the public have opinions on this.

Ms. Guo, a citizen: It should be compensated. It is the parents' dereliction of duty that they did not play the role of guardianship and supervision for their children.

In fact, it is not uncommon for children to "get into trouble" outside. Some parents use "children are young" and "children are not sensible" as an excuse to shirk, but others think that even if children are "not sensible". However, some people think that even children's "ignorant behavior", as parents, they must stand up and bear the corresponding responsibilities.

Ms. Guo, a citizen: If the child is still a minor, parents must be responsible for doing something wrong, and if the child's primary education is not in place, they must be responsible.

the lawyer pointed out that the law clearly stipulates that if a person with no capacity for civil conduct or a person with limited capacity for civil conduct causes damage to others, the guardian shall bear tort liability.

Article 4

The lawyer reminds that the reasons such as "the child is still young" and "he is not sensible" are not excuses for parents to evade legal responsibilities, and it is necessary to strengthen the care of children when taking them out.

Xu Jiehua, lawyer of Guangdong Rongjiang Law Firm: Parents are responsible for the guardianship of minors. Although the children are young and cause property losses to others, as long as they are minors, they are responsible. Parents should take legal responsibility. When going out to play, they should take care of their children and don't destroy other people's property. For example, parents can't be excused, but they should bear the responsibility of compensation. Be liable for compensation.
