Should juvenile offenders be Tried As Adults?

Should juvenile Offenders be tried as adults? This question has become a hot topic in this country. What should be their punishment for the crimes? In my opinion, juveniles who commit serious crimes should not be tried as adults. Not only is trying these teens as adults unjust and unfair, but also there are other negative effects on juveniles. They’re other alternatives that our society can use to help make a juvenile a better human being. We also need to realize that children are our future, and we are throwing their future away.
There are many negative effects of trying juveniles as adults. One of these effects occurs when juveniles who are tried as adults are released from jail. They tend to re-offend more quickly and commit more crime...
