Some people believe that longer prison sentences are the best ways to decrease crime, while others believe that there are alternative ways to reduce crime. Discuss both views, and give your opinion.

Some
people
argue that to decrease the
crimes
, a long
prison
sentence is the best way while other
people
believe that
this
may not be as effective as we think.In my opinion, to reduce
crimes
, we should try some alternative ways rather than those kinds of sentences. On one hand,
people
think that if we give some serious punishments, criminals will afraid and do not dare to commit the
crimes
.
In addition
, the
people
who are already in jail will regret what they did in their past. But it is not true. The person who doesn't want to commit another case doesn't ever do it again whether u give a long or short
prison
sentence.
For example
, there may be criminals who committed with no intentions or who is threatened to commit.There will never do
this
again when they are free because they don't want to involve even in their
first
experiences. Do you ever hear about serial killers? They are the ones that do the
crimes
with intentions. They will manage the
crimes
again and again even when they are free after a serious judgement. So, the terms of
prison
is not an important way that can cope with the
crimes
. I want to suggest some alternative ways to prevent serious cases
such
as murders and rape cases. We all
people
grow mostly depending on our childhood cravings and the thoughts of surrounding that we had to live. So we must educate children by telling them stories, showing the postcards that involve the
crimes
. And
also
we need to make them understand not to do bad things to others.
For example
, a child who lives with rude parents has a percentage to be rude when he gets older and a child who lives with generous parents will grow into a good man. In conclusion,childhood lives are more important than longer
prison
statements. We just need to bring up children without traumas and have a good mindset from the start.So in my opinion, longer
prison
sentences are not the best way to control the
crimes
.
