Some children are not children and what I mean by that is they will walk in and out of their parents house as if they are grown and dare their parent to question them. My theory to those is if you are that grown then if you commit the crime then baby due the time. Then you have those that do not have common sense to even know that the person they are hanging out with is doing something wrong so they should not get tried like an adult you can tell the different in a child that is ignorant of what has happen to them and one that is not. I do not feel any child should get more time then the indivdual that actually committed the crime, that shows right there that they are a kid because they would be smart enough to take a deal like the indivdual that did the crime took a deal so that they would not be in there for life. I feel if the prosecutor gives the individual that committed the crime a deal of not spending the rest of their life in prison then they should automatically reduce the charges on the child that was just there and did not commit the crime but was just a excessor to the fact. The prosecutor would rather but the person that did not do the crime in prison for the rest of his life but the one that did the crime work a deal is that not backwards. Think about that prosecutors and judges. I have a two way point of view of the issue.

We all know there is a difference between a child 18 and under and an adult, it's time our Leader's stop focusing on seek and destroy methods when it comes to our kids. No child under any circumstance should tried, convicted and sentenced as an adult, that's clearly barbaric, inhumane and morally wrong!! Children should be treated and sentenced as children, isn't that the reason we have juvenile courts and facilities?? We desparately need to rehabilitate and educate "EVERY CHILD" that finds themselves in a court room for a crime!! Who are we, prosecutor or judge to say this child is capable of reform but this child is not...That's not fair!! If we treat 1 child as a child, we need to start treating "ALL" children as they really are (CHILDREN) who can be rehabilitated! I think if we say some kids can't be rehabilitated, that's just us adults being lazy and incompitent when it comes to important job positions we choose ourselves as a career!! EVERY CHILD is worth way more than a dollar rather it be our job position we choose for the money or the court and prison system itself..EVERY CHILD = OUR FUTURE as a whole...
