Well I think two things-- One im only posting here cause i want a promotion and Two:
Criminally stupid is hard to define, putting nails at the bottom of the fence...only if those nails are like a part of your family a part that you fight for and that you sometimes let into the house despite their questionable hygiene. Besides which aren't the parents equally as stupid for not saying don't go into the yard with the dangerous doggy and then maybe trying something many Americans are fatally terrified of
Discipline. 
Hate to sound like the biracial pentecostal I am but "spare the rod spoil the child" did you ever think that maybe little johnny wouldn't have to have a glass eye if you had just spanked him for trying to cross the fence in the first place instead of saying "I'm very disappointed" the moronic kid has to have a sense of right and wrong instilled into him before you can expect him to care if your dissapointed or not...sigh but alas we've come so far beyond that today we know that everyone is born good, that good is like an instinct...BS good is what you grow up with if you grow up with some smutty mother and drunk father you gonna be one of the two-humans dont have instincts we have the ability to learn hence the weak and dependent state of our young they learn by watching and how you act is how they're gonna act...and if HTML is enabled how come my text won't display red when I tell it to?
Thanks to Pheonix-D for specifying it was brackets
