In Allegheny County, a new ordinance passed banning bullying
and holding parents responsible for their children’s actions. Any harassment
that intimidates, emotionally abuses, defames or threatens another person is
defined as bullying in the new ordinance.
Any children under the age of 18 will
receive a written warning for their first offense. The child’s parents will be
sited if the same child bullies again within 90 days. If the person is found
guilty, they could face a $600 fine.
