159.180 Parents responsible for children's violations. Every parent, guardian, or custodian of a child residing in any school district in this state
is legally responsible for any violation of KRS 159.010 to 159.170 by the child. Before

KRS 159.010 to 159.170, a written notice of the violation shall be served on the person

notice shall be necessary and the parent or guardian shall be punishable as provided in
