I think teens should be tried as adults. The reason why I think teens should be tried as adults is because if they committed a crime they should do the time. If they think their adult let them have adult consequences.
16 For adult like crimes, kids and teens should be prosecuted, convicted and sentenced for adult crimes. This should is because it doesn't matter if you kill or murdered a human you should pay for it. No matter for the age. Killing a person is wrong. My opionon would not be different if someone close to me was convicted of a crime. "If you did the crime you should do the time."
#11 I think that teenagers and children shouldn't be convicted as a adult because they are kids, they don't know what they are doing or it might have been a accident! But if they keep doing the same thing over and over again, even after they were informed about their actions, then they should be punished but that is the only time when teens or children should be thrown away and taken from their family and friends!
#30 I believe that teens should not be sentenced as adults unless they commited a crime such as murder. I believe that us kids are at the young "i think im always right" stage. We need a chance to make mistakes without fully being charged as an adult. I think it would only be fair. I also think that this helps us learn our lesson without compleatly ruining our livs. If a young adult commits a really serious crime such as murder or rape then they should be tried as an adukt no questions asked. I would feel the same if it was my family member or friend.
Teens shouldn't be tried as adults, because teens make dumb mistakes. They make these mistakes because, frankly, teens are idiots. The only case that I think could try teens for adults is when they kill or attempt to kill someone. In other cases, like selling drugs or something stupid like that, I think it's okay to sentence them as a teen. Why? Simply, teens make dumb mistakes! I think it would all be the same for me if someone I know was in a situation like that.
I think teens or kids need to be trial as the same rules for adult crimes so that when there convicted of a crime then it would be fair for the consequences they receive for adults,teens,and kids.
#25 I do not think that people under the age of 18 should not be tried as adults. I think this because you are not considered an adult until you are 18 so you should not have an adult charge if you are not considered an adult. The minimum age to be tried as an adult should be 18. All in all I think that people under age that commit serious crimes should be punished but not the same punishments as adults.
#5 I think teens should be tried as adults because I feel like if they can do the crime they should like get the same consequences because they want to be treated like an adult then have them pay the same time as an adult.
26-I think the only time teens should be charged as an adult is if they murder someone or do something really harmful to someone.Otherwise no teen should be charged as an adult for something little. Yeah we may do some dumb stuff but most of the stuff we do is not that bad to get charged as an adult.Another way a teen should get charged as an adult is if when they get in trouble the Joudge give us a worning and yo do it again and again then the Jougde may just say she is tired of him getting in trouble and puts him behind bars.
14-I dont think that teens show be tried as adults unlessw they have commited a bad enough crime. Murdure, breaking and entering, rap, smoking pot. The minimum age should be 10. 10 year olds, think that its ok to do these things even though they might have been tought better than that. I wouldn't change my answer because they knew better then that. I wouldn't change it because the person that did that to the other person diserves to be punished. They should be treated just like an adult.
20-5I 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.In conclusion I would think that it shouldn't matter about there ages
#27 I feel that kids or teens should get some what t5he same kind of punishment as an adult. To show that that if they think that the are all grown to do the crime that let them get the punishment a adult would get. But they are still kids don't go to hard on them. Yet at he end of this i would have to say a kid/teen should not get such a big punishment at an adult should get. I feel the reason a adult should get such a worst punishment is for the fact they are a grown person. They should know better then to do that. so they get punished a little more harsh.
5... I think teens should be tried as adults. The reason I think they should be tried is because if you do something wrong like killing someone or anything else is a crime. Also because some on us kids think we are adults but we are not. So if they think they are adults then they should take the consequences like an adult. In conclusion I think that we should all be tried as teens.
#30 to #22 I agree with you compleatly. Teens are "idiots" Everyone makes mistakes especially teens these days. I beleive the same as you, they should only be sentenced as adults if they have anything to do with a murder and in one other instance; rape.
# 7 I think that if a teen comited an adult like crim they should be convicted because they deserve an adult conseqence. If a teen comits a murder or something horrible like that they should be convicted as an adult. The minimum age for being tried as an adult should be 13. I think this because most teens start making their own decitions about this age and for the rest of their lifes. If I or someone close to me got acused of a big crime, my thoughts wouldnt change, they brought that on them selfs. I think juveniles that commit a big crime should be convicted of the crimes as adults.
4 I think it really depends on the intensity of the crime whether or not a juvenile should be charged as adults. I think if it comes to murder then yes, they should be tried as adults. I think this because kids make mistakes, and they need to learn from them, but if it’s not too serious then there’s no need to go to prison for it. I think murder and robberies and other things like rape and stuff should be charged as adult. Petty things like stealing and destroying public property should just be juvenile detention or something like that. I don’t think there should be a minimum age. It just depends on what they did. I think I would want them to have solid evidence if someone close to me was accused. Obviously if someone close to me was a victim I would want whoever did it to be arrested. All in all, I think juveniles who commit adult-like crimes should at least be in jail for a good portion of their life just so they don’t hurt anyone else.
I think teens should deffenatly be tried as adults, if the crime is serious enough. One example of a serious crime is mureder or a robery. In the book Tenderrnes I think Erick Poole the dude who murederd five people should be tried as an adult. I also believe that a teen should not be tried as an adult if the crime isnt that serious like getting arrested for something stupid.
From:5 To: 25 Well if they are not charged then what will happen? They'll just keep doing what they did and nobody would of taught the teen their lesson. They need to learn that what they did was not right.
14 to 11- NO! Thats just wrong! If you can text, talk and walk dont the street alone! You are able to do anything! So, if they can kill someone they should be treated the same as adults!!!!!!!!!!!
#30 to #27 good point! kids should be sentenced as adults but not as harsh. I can say that this is a good way to make teens learn their lesson, maybe scare them a little, then leave them to live their lives. Its good that you pointed out the facet that if the kids felt grown enough to commit the crime they should be charged with almost the same punishment.
I believe teens should be trial as adults cause there are somethings that are serious and somethings that are not but still they need to be trial as an adult no matter what they did wrong or bad they still need to be trial.
I think if a teen or a child did commit the crime as bad as murder they should pay their time like the others. If I had to choose the minimum age for an adult sentence I would make it sixteen. I believe sixteen is when teens start to try and act older. If I was ever accused of a crime and I did not do it I would tell the truth that it. If some one close to me was a victim than I would tell my friend put a restraining order on the person once they get out. If a juvenile committed a serious crime like murder than that person should be put in jail for a long time. A crime like that should not have any loopholes for a sentence.
dear 11, I know not all teens aren't idiots, but there's the ones who are dumb enough to do a crime in the first place, then we have the sweet innocent ones who don't get into trouble, or at least they don't get caught haha. -22
I think kids or teens under eight teen should be tried as adults. the reason I think this is because if some one under eight teen kills they do not have the right to do such a thing like that. there for they should have the same consequences as an adult.
