Expert Answer
Juveniles should be treated:
- A juvenile is a person below the age of 17 years who is unfortunately involved activities that are in criminal and anti social.
- Juveniles should be treated differently because:
- Children cannot intentionally commit a crime because psychologically they aren’t developed enough to distinguish between right and wrong.
- Trying juveniles as criminals affects their psyche.
- Instead they should be rehabilitated and counselled.
- Juveniles have a right to a future, and therefore, they should be given a chance to learn from their mistakes.
- Responsible people should help them realise their faults and encourage to overcome their flaws.
Juveniles should be tried as adults:
- A juvenile delinquent should be tried as an adult as punishment acts as deterrent to crime.
- Juveniles are sane enough to differentiate between good and bad.
- Therefore, children can commit crimes as they have decided to choose the wrong path.
- Instead of rehabilitation, they should be tried as adults and given punishment so that other children don’t commit such shameful acts.
- Juveniles are a threat to the society as they can easily corrupt other children in their group.
- The physical and mental maturity of a child should be tested and he or she should be punished accordingly.
