Nowadays, the age of crime is getting younger and younger, especially teenagers.
This
raises the question of whether the methods of re-education for juvenile delinquents are

outdated and no longer deterrent. Some argue that the government should impose the same
punishment
on teenagers as adults. In my opinion, I disagree with
this
statement.
To begin
, most young people commit crimes due to impulsiveness and lack of thought. Adolescents are mentally unstable, easily agitated, do not know how to manage emotions and

, which leads to criminal actions.
For example
, incidents of violence are most often caused by small frictions between friends or participating in theft to express themselves in a word of defiance.
In addition
, it can be seen that
children
who commit crimes are
children
who lack attention from their families. A child may choose the most negative method of seeking parental attention through rebelliousness. Some
children
believe that their more rebellious actions
such
as fighting or stealing will attract more attention, and
this
is more like a cry for help from the child than a criminal act.
Therefore
, applying
punishment
such
as imprisonment or some other harsher method of
punishment
will be counterproductive, the fragile nature of the child will be hurt, making the situation worse and

.
Moreover
, if punishing minors as adults, in the case of a student being bullied by a peer by blaming the theft not only has great consequences for the entire family of the bullied student but
also
causes inequality in society.
However
, applying the same fines could reduce the juvenile crime rate immediately. If the
punishment
is not deterrent enough, it is easy for young people to feel fearless, continue to repeat, and from small mistakes can lead to bigger mistakes
such
as drug trafficking, kidnapping, murder. . Meanwhile, severe
punishment
will make
children
think more carefully before doing and reduce recidivism, making society more stable. But in the end, heavy or light
punishment
is not as important as self-awareness and self-correction,
instead
of severely punishing
children
who commit crimes, they should educate them to understand that.
In conclusion, juvenile criminals should not be punished as adults. The law always has leniency and if acts of impulsiveness at a young age have to be paid with the future, that price is too expensive.
