Post by: pyros on Apr 29, 2015
Why do most states in the United States still treat adolescents differently when they commit a crime?

   a.  Fewer adolescents commit crimes and therefore those who do need counseling.
   b.  Adolescents commit less serious crimes so the justice system should reflect this.
   c.  Adolescents are not held to be as responsible for their actions as adults are.
   d.  More adolescents lie.
