Nigel Parsons	BS: Sentencing children to die in prison (68* d)	RE: BS: Sentencing children to die in prison	18 Sep 17
From: Thompson - PM Date: 18 Sep 17 - 02:49 AM The concept of "trying a child as an adult" is nonsense. A child is a child, not an adult. Yes, but where to draw the line? Some adults have the 'mental age' of children, and some children are exceptionally precocious. Legislators in different countries set the cut-off age differently (and the age of consent, and age at which one can marry/drink/drive). Once set it must be the guidance which is used, unless the law is changed. There must be some circumstances in which criminals (of any age) must take the consequences of their own actions.
