According to the article, many states' policies dictate that an adolescent offender's age cannot be taken into account: "Judges can't consider it. Juries can't consider it. No one can consider it" (Paragraph 10). Why do you think such a law exists in the first place? Is this a fair law? In the context

I think it isn’t a fair law because teenagers sometimes don’t know what they are doing, and also they should consider their age because they are not adults, they are teens so they are still discovering the world around them, and we are in the 21st century, we are not back into history, so that is why it isn’t a fair law.

Being grown up means a lot of responsibilities that some teens don’t have, and for me that’s putting a lot of pressure on them, also they shouldn’t be treating them like adults because they are kids, who should focus on their education and not that much on life problems.

Hope this helps
