I belive that children should only be tryed as an adult when they do a crime worthy of it. An example would be for murder, kidnapping, or assult. If your old enough to try to kill someone, or hurt anyone to the point that they almost died. Then you deserve to pay for it no matter how old you are. Your actions have consequences, and always will.
The idea of punishment over rehabilitation, my idea is that if it's something small like stealing. I think that people should have the option of rehabilitation. Some times al people need is a little help and that can change them. But if it's an offence bigger then a mistamenor then they deserve to be punished and go to jail. Things have a way of getting back to you, what goes around comes around. It also depends on if you get convicted or not.
