I call bullshit on this assertion. if, as a 14 year old, a child doesn't know right from wrong...then he/she either has a severe mental/emotional deficiency or his/her parents have done a fantastically bad job.
I have a 13 year old daughter. she KNOWS right from wrong.
my thought on the matter is this: let the punishement fit the crime. commit an adult crime...get punished as an adult. simple.
