Completed 1st paragraph: Setting an example for other students coming to live in the U.S for a better living, and having no justification for the actions performed on Yiran Liu I believe that the defendants deserved the punishment they received. Insuring the safety of The “Parachute” Teenagers, extreme measure of parental guidance and control should be accommodated catering to the student’s conductivity and well-being. Having the right parental guidance or supervision, the idea of certain behaviors would become misunderstood and unknowing to the young “Parachute” Teenagers.
