Thank you for your opinions. : ) A moment of stresssssss.

My thesis:
As a society, we have a moral obligation to attempt at rehabilitating juvenile delinquents rather than trying them as adults in our courts and sentencing them to prisons. Because they are still children, we have an obligation to teach them. When a child does wrong, we punish and correct them as age and crime call for.
That is of course, after Adam convinced me this isn't a sociolgy research paper but a philosophy class.....
