Topic: lowering the age of criminal liability (CONS)

I'm ready to argue **FOR** lowering the age of criminal liability. You're about to defend keeping it high—that kids deserve protection, rehabilitation over punishment, that their brains aren't developed. I get it. But here's the problem: you're protecting the wrong people. A 14-year-old who commits armed robbery knows exactly what he's doing. He's counting on the system treating him like a baby. Meanwhile, his victim is traumatized, and he faces zero real consequences. That's not justice, that's a free pass. Accountability teaches faster than therapy. Lower the age, enforce consequences proportional to the crime, and suddenly young offenders think twice. So tell me—why should a violent teenager get protection that a college kid doesn't?

lowering the age of criminal liability (CONS) Tagalog

Handa na akong labanan ang iyong posisyon laban sa pagbaba ng edad ng kriminal na responsibilidad. Ang iyong argument ay magiging puro sentimentalismo—na ang mga bata ay hindi pa handa, na kailangan nila ng rehabilitation, hindi punishment. Pero ito ang katotohanan: ang mga teenagers ngayon ay hindi nakakaalam ng konsekwensya. Isang 12-taong-gulang na nag-hold-up ay alam niya kung ano ang ginagawa niya. Gumagamit siya ng bata system laban sa amin. Accountability, hindi therapy, ang nagtuturo sa bilis. Bakit dapat protektahan natin ang mga bata na gumagawa ng mga krimen na dapat sampahan ng mga pang-edad na tao? Sabihin mo—may hangganan ba talaga ang youth?
