serious crime, I would argue that treating both young and mature lawbreakers equally may have adverse effects. Apparently, there are some reasons why I disagree with
this
notion at the top of
that is
children are not enough mature. To be precise, they are too young to fully understand that their criminal acts lead to potential consequences. To epitome, teenagers may physically grow up and look like
adults
, but they are not mentally mature to evaluate their decisions wisely.
Furthermore
, some of the adolescents indulge in bad activities due to their peer pressure and harassment by others.
Thus
, there not enough capable to control their emotions and aggression;
as a result
, they execute humiliation.
On the other hand
, approving the same court on juvenile means that they have to spend their life in prison
instead
of reformatory schools.
Moreover
, rehabilitation is a vital process for the younger one's.
Therefore
, rather than sending them to prison where serious criminals are living, they should let to stay in reformatory schools, where they can continue their study and stay far away from the criminal life.
For instance
, in young age pupils are not enough mature, if we will teach them the positive aspects of life and encourage them toward studies, their mindset will change automatically
also
their negative thoughts will be exchange with a positive one's. To conclude, I oppose
this
view as young have to the same punishment as
adults
when they carry out the severe violation.
Although
offsprings perpetrate crimes, it is not the correct measure to mitigate
this
issue as they are not enough mature to control their thoughts.
Hence
, they can suffer from psychological problem if would send to jail.
