> "parents could be held accountable for their children's actions"

> So, it seems to mean you can justify your decision

No, not at all. If you can justify your decision, that doesn't mean you're being held accountable for it. Being held accountable means being punished, whether you can justify a decision or not. If you cannot be punished for something, then you are not accountable for it.
