It is argued that former prisoners can change their attitudes and transform into good citizens. And that their transformation made us the best to sensibilize children about the dangers of breaking the law. I agree with that for two reasons :
First,
ex-offenders are able to become good members of our society and Linking Words
then
, I think that they are the best people to talk about these dangers.

To begin
, prisons have been created to change the attitude of detainees, so it is logical that they can become good citizens. They spend months or years in a small space with usually no distractions, so they have time to question themselves about what they did wrong before and what they could improve in the future. And of course, when they get out of prison, the majority of them become good members of our society. Linking Words
According to
a study at Stanford University in California in 2021, 89% of former convicts successfully reintegrate into society, and 18% of them, have high-responsibility jobs.

Next,
I think that former offenders who succeed in their reintegration are the best people to talk to teenagers about the exposure of breaking the law. Indeed, those know what they did wrong in their lives, so their testimonies can be very interesting for younger generations. Linking Words
For example
, Linking Words
last
February, in a French school in Paris, a former detainee came to narrate his history. In Linking Words
accord
with a survey, most students realize for the first time how a crime can destroy life. Replace the word
accordance
Moreover
, the fact that it is a prisoner who talks about the danger, is a way for them to repair, in some way, the infraction that they have committed.

To conclude
, I agree with both ideas, even if all the prisoners are not, good citizens, after prison is the best to sensibilize teenagers about the dangers of committing a crime.Linking Words
