Children in these situations don't need incarceration they need therapy and rehabilitation. Putting them behind bars is just a waste at best, and doesn't in any way make the world a better place.
I think sometimes people respond to punishment. They/we don't want the consequences of an action so we change our behavior. With that said, our prison system is terrible. A person's punishment should be loss of freedom (only). IMO we should still treat prisoners with some dignity and they should be safe and reasonably comfortable.
