John Wain - Sir
Sir,

I read with interest your story yesterday about the young internet criminal. My view of the case is that what the boy did was a really dumb idea. And I think that the people don’t have to have pity with the boy, because with 15 years can you estimate the consequence and you have to realize it. In the end begs the question, who has to pay. The Argentinian I think doesn’t have to pay. And the boy is a juvenile. In the end the company had to pay, but I don’t think that’s right. My opinion is that the parents are responsible for their child.
If I was the Argentinian, I would be a little bit angry, but I wouldn’t make a big drama, just say to the parents, they have to look better for their child.
One mistake I can see in the company. It can’t be, that you may give any credit card number at all. So my conclusion is, that all of them have to take the blame excepting the Argentinian guy and I think you will find that the majority of sensible people feel the same way.Eric is the son of newly divorced parents. He is the first and only child in the family. He is nearly 6 years of age and has difficulties adapting to the new the circumstances. He is in a period in his life where he is on the verge of becoming a ”big boy”. The childish manners are coming loose and the complicated grown-up world is taking over. He is very proud that the grown-ups also see him as a responsible young man. Still, he has problems understanding the adults. There are many questions he would like to ask them but is afraid to do so. How are the adults going to respond? Is it a grown-up questions? In order to protect his newly established valuations as a mature boy, he ignores asking. One of the questions he is struggling with is why his father is no longer with them. His mother told him that a new man was going to stay with them. Everything would be as before, except that Dad would not be there. Eric does not understand why his father had to leave just because Donald moved in. He loves his

    (Lithwick 492) She is right the charges against them are too severe. They can stay on their record for a long time or even forever.

Who would want to hire a person who takes images of kids? It is a serious offence too people all over the world, but its a big charge just for a teen. Especially if that teen is a boy and receives a random photo on his cell phone and it’s a nude photo of his girlfriend and she is drunk. It’s not his fault that she is drunk. She is a drunk and underage girl. Teens don’t know any better. Many, well most of the teenagers are all still immature. Many think that being 18,17,16,15 they think they are grown when they really are not. Most all the teenagers don’t know fully what’s right from wrong. There mind is not fully developed and when something goes wrong the kids that think that there grown, go straight to their parents for help. That’s why they have grown parents to help them in life.

    Video game composers are in many cases the unsung heroes of the video game franchise. Many people don't realize that the best games happen because of that sensational feeling when you fight off a horde of difficult enemies only to be elevated by the euphoric symphony of a master composer. Koji Kondo is one these people, only he has received much recognition for his many achievements. Most famously known for his role in the composition of Legend of Zelda and Super Mario music, Koji Kondo is a world renowned composer and a household name in the video game industry.…

    Andrew Jackson became the nation’s seventh president in 1829. He made significant changes in American politics at that time. He was very popular with the people because of the fact that he was a hero of the War of 1812. He had also served in the senate and was a tough man who had manifested the spirit of the frontier. One change Jackson brought about was the steadily increasing power of the west. He happened to be the first president to come from the west of the Appalachians and was also the start of a new era of democracy in American politics. President Jackson did not approve of a overpowering or controlling federal government. He felt the national government should be the least involved as possible as he vetoed many acts of congress in his term as president. He believed that the state should build the road and not the national government. Jackson’s idea of a limited government shared the beliefs of many Americans who feared the power of the federal government. Although many crisis did occur during Jackson's term as President like the Nullification Crisis, Indian Removal Act and the Bank War, Jackson was always a supporter of a limited federal government.…

    Upon reading the article title, I was compelled to read the article and see what it entailed. At first glance, I questioned what the teenager could have done to deserve to be tried as an adult in court. I cannot tell whether you support the action of the prosecuting team or not. You did a splendid job keeping your opinion out of the article and avoiding bias. However, there are some pieces of the article I would like further explanations on if you have the details…

    This paper is going to bring to attention to some things that are a very sensitive topic to many of those on both sides of the argument. Why should or shouldn’t children be sentenced to live in prison. Of course this is a difficult decision for many people involved with these crimes. For the prosecutor he is trying to make sure the victims of the families are trying to get justice to some sort of a degree. At the same time we can prove the underdevelopment of an adolescent’s brain is not developed then that of an adults. But what should we do. Should we allow a child “get off the hook” for committing such hanis crimes? For some it might be “getting off the hook” while others for staying in prion is too severe of a punishment. So what should we do as a country or as a state? These are some very difficult questions that lawyers have been fighting for. There really is no way of having an equal punishment where both sides are happy. Restitution cannot be made for the loss of life. Or can it? This is also an interesting argument because of the age of the children. Obviously there is no way to pay back for the loss of live but what about those who are only involved in the crime but didn’t commit the murder. In some states those that are involved get the same punishment of life in jail. Is there a way that those involved in the crime and pay back for their mistakes? These are some of the questions that we will visit throughout my paper. From the beginning there is no right way of dealing with these difficult issues but is Jail the answer for dealing with these children. Will sending them to jail teach the lessons for the rest of their lives? Some say that it is what is needed to keep them off the streets for the mistakes. For others they have made some very serious mistakes but to be put to jail for accidents because they didn’t know any…

    The criminal justice system is identified as an important aspect of our society and enforcing laws that help develop the well being of our nation. One would say the criminal justice system is not implemented to arrest, prosecute or punish criminals, however it is there to prevent crime and form a peaceful, law abiding society. In doing this there would have to be a balance with criminal justice and the rights of the individual accused with society’s need for order. The extent of the efficiency of the juvenile justice system, media’s influence over juveniles and their impact on society's need for order and the possible solutions to the problems arising from these systems, need to be changed in order to reduce the high rate of youth crime. In…

    Juvenile Delinquency

    According to “Juvenile Delinquency,” under the parens patriae philosophy, minors who engage in extralegal behavior are viewed as victims of improper care, custody and treatment at home (Siegel, Welsh, Senna 16). The concept of parens patriae explains the state’s duty to protect minor children who lack proper care and custody from their parents. The occurrence of minor illegal behavior is a sign that the state should intervene. Before more serious crimes are committed, these youths should be taken care of by the state. The best interest of the minor should be at hand. Instead of being punished for their wrong doing they should be treated and steered in the right direction, away from crime. “Under the parens patriae philosophy, delinquent acts are not considered criminal violations and delinquents are not considered “criminals”.” (Siegel, Welsh, Senna 18)…

    The death penalty issue has always been one of the most important issues of the contemporary system of justice. Years ago the majority of the criminals were male over 20 years old, but nowadays the situation has changed. Not only adults are sentenced but children who are under 18 years old nowadays they commit murders and other terrible crimes. However, a child is always a child and if he commits a crime it is not because he has a good life in fact, it is not the guilt of the children, they don’t have the fortune of having anybody who loves, supports and leads them in the correct direction. Under these conditions a child should never be sentenced to death because they still have a chance to change and re-evaluate their life.…

    Authors like Gail Garingermarch Say “ politicians soon responded by lowering the age at which children could be transferred to adult courts.“ I find it odd that the politicians placing theses children in jail, are making money. We can say children in prison are suffering, yet don't care as long there making money. In america you can't vote till eighteen then you can't buy alcohol till twenty one, finally you can't rent a car till twenty five . Myself and some Americans don't see the logic behind this. The drinking age in most counties is eighteen . In this Brazill case he was only thirteen “ Brazilian was only thirteen when he committed his crime. He said he made a “stupid mistake,”.The court did not see a child. Paul Thompson states “prosecutors argued that by bringing a gun to school he planned the crime”. Most people believe it was a stupid mistake. And what the court said was also a stupid…
