13- I believe that teens and children should be sentenced the same as adults for adult-like crimes. I believe this because age shouldn't matter when it comes to crimes. All adult-like crimes should warrant adult sentences. If someone close to me who is underage was arrested for an adult-like crime I wouldn't want them to be sentenced the same as adults. If someone close to me was a victim of a crime committed by a juvenile I would want the juvenile to have an adult sentence. Definitely, juveniles should be punished the same as adults for adult-like crimes.
104_ 23 I personally think that teens should be prosecuted, convicted, and sentenced like adults if they have committed an adult crime. I think this because its an adult crime, the minimum age to be tried should be twelve because 13 is considered as a "teen". I would be mad if someone i knew was accused of doing a crime but if they were a teen(13+). I f i knew the person i would try to prove them wrong but still have them be on an adult trial.
I do think that kids should be convicted like adults for adult like crimes.They need to be thought it is wrong.Also adult should be 18.If there was someone in my life that this happened to them my thing would not change.They made thouse choices.All in all that is my opinion.
28-I think that kids should not be treated the same way a adult should because its not fair.The adult can take more then a kid.The kids cant protected them self's like the adults in jail even some adults cant even take care of them self's because there is some weird adults in jail imagine the little kids getting treated like if there nothing.
14 I think that young adults from ages 13-18 should be convicted the same way as adults do when they commit serious crimes. It shouldn't be determined on the person's age, but on how serious the crime is. If young adults don't learn now about how serious crimes can be, then they might never learn. So I would think that it shouldn't matter about there ages.
#4 should teens be tried as adults. i think no. teens are teens in till they turn 18 then they can be tried as adults. when u turn 18 you can drive and that's when u can be consider an adult. if u get charged with some thing that an adult would get charged with thats just not fare ur not old enough to get adult charged. if u do a crime that is an adult crime then if ur in there till ur 18or older then u should get charged. lets say if ur 15 and in jail till 19 u should get charged as an adult. if ur 5 and in there till 17then u should not get charged as an adult.
30 - do think that kids should be convicted like adults for adult like crimes.They need to be thought it is wrong.Also adult should be 18.If there was someone in my life that this happened to them my thing would not change.They made thouse choices.All in all that is my opinion.
16: Although it might seem like a great idea to try teens and children like adults in court, i think its a terrible idea. If you commit a crime under the age of eighteen your legally not an adult. So i would compare it to buying a gun when your twelve, its not right in any case. If your emancipated then that would mean that you are legally an adult and should be tried as an adult. In conclusion, if you are declared an adult you should be tried as one, if not than it should most definitely be a juvenile.
17: In my opinion I believe that it depends on the situation if a juvenile should be tried as an adult. I believe this because some people have valid reasons for doing it, some situations may be accident, and then there's other who do it intentionally. It also depends on the age of a child, because depending on their age I don't believe they should b placed with adults. If the situation was by mistake or if there was a valid reason then I don't think they should be tried as adults, but if they no right from wrong and planned it then they should be tried as an adult. I know someone who has been charged as an an adult and it does change your point of view on things. All in all, in my opinion it does end up depending on the age of the teen or child, and how drastic the situation turns out.
13-28 I disagree with you because the crime is still adult-like even if a teen or child committed it. Even though I disagree with you, you make some very good points.
Teens should not be convicted or sentenced like adults because kids don't thinks like adults. Murdering and nothing. The mimimum age should be 18 because they are not kids no more and they what they did wrong. My opinion would not be different, well maybe because it depends on the crime. They should be charged because they killed someone and that's not okay for any reason
7. Well for me it would depend on the situation. For example if that kid would've killed one of my family member. Then i would go to the extremes to get that kid tried as an adult, but on the other hand i don't think serial killers can control there urge to kill. Like in the book "tenderness" Eric is being tried as a minor because of his age, but the crime he committed is an adult like crime he purposely killed his parents just because he didn't like them. so my thought is neutral, it all depends on the situation.
18 No, teenage should not be tried as adult because their underage and its just mess up if teenage do something illegal like murder someone or rape .. Its just wrong , but there is someone in the world who does all kinds of stuff. And if someone who's close to me that did something really illegal and I'll be shocked. And I stay on what I think its right. Like I think its not good for you to smoke, I think school is REALLY important if you want a good job in the future. But some people don't think that cause everyone is different they think its cool to smoke , they think its cool to ditch class and not do work in school is fine .. Thats my opinion.
24.In my opinion I think that children and teens should be prosecuted,convicted, and sentenced as an adult for adult like crimes.Once your crazy you are always crazy. Psychopaths don't just get rid of being a crazy freak. The only charge I do not think should apply is Man Slaughter. Because kids have accidents. If some one close to me killed some one I still would want them to get convicted as an adult.I think juveniles who commit drastic adult-like crimes should be sentenced to life. In conclusion I think that Children,Teens and young adults should be convicted as adults.
12)Should Children/teens get tried as adults?? I say yes! I think it's unfair, and for a me a teen to think we should get the same consequences as adults is huge. If a teen does something that adults get in trouble for but teens don't they should get in trouble for it. It's not fair. What if its a incident were there is teen and a adult the adult will get in trouble for what the teen prob did. I differently this teens/children should get equal rights and consequences.
11 No I do not think teens should be tried as adults. They shouldnt be because some teens dont no better with what they are doing. Also because some might have a bad childnhood and there mind is so screwed up from it that they dont think about what they are doing. The minium age to be tried as an adult is twenty one because that is when they consider you to able to do anything.When a juvenille commits a crime they should be sent to juvie and also get professional help.
I think teens should be tried as a adult. The reason why i think this is because if you want to do adult crimes then you should get adult consequences. It would not be fair to others is justice wasn't equal.
19. Personally, I think teens and children should be convicted as an adult for adult like crimes.If they are convicted for an adult crime then it must be a really serious crime.The minimum age for being tried as an adult should be 18 because,18 is considered an adult by law.
25- Teens and children should not be prosecuted, convicted, and sentenced like adults for adult-like crimes. They should not be convicted because teens are still young and dont under stand the laws fully. I think no crimes should not be warranted for adult crimes because children dont know really what there doing.I think the minimum age for adult sentence is at least 18 because thats when every one says you become an adult. My opinion would be the the same if someone close did any thing really bad. If a juvinial commeted murder then they should go to a juvy.
I think juvenile delinquents, such as children 18 and under, should be charged as an adult if they had committed an adult related crime. I think this because if a child committed first degree murder and was only charged with three years in a Juvenile Correction Facility it would be like they're getting off free without realizing what they had done wrong. Murder should be a warrant adult sentence for teens. I think the minimum age for being charged as an adult should be 10. A ten year old, at their age hasn't fully developed their knowledge of what they've done wrong. My opinion would be no different if it would be my niece or nephew who was over the age of ten but under the age of 18.I think if you commit a crime then, you should have already thought of the consequences. Juveniles who commit drastic adult crimes like premeditated murder should be charged like an adult because they knew it was wrong.
11 to 15 I disagree that at the age of ten kids should be charged as an adult at the least is a teenager but at the age of ten a childs brain is not near devolped yet.
