A Surrey teenager who brought a loaded handgun to school because he "thought it would be cool to show people" is now serving a six-month custodial sentence in the community for the offence.
I don't think a 14yo should have any lifetime punishment for anything they do. I do think the parents were irresponsible. How can a 14yo have access to a safe with guns in it?
yea brain is not formed yet. thats why they look like adults but make such incredibly stupid mistakes. Also why we have a youth justice act. We are not savages like that cheetos colored place to the south.
I feel this is often a cop out though. As a teen I knew right from wrong. And made choices , where some friends made bad choices and suffered tue consequences. But maybe there are kids that have terrible role models
