Who are juvenile offenders?
Depending on the constitution in a given jurisdiction that sets out the age of the minor, it is usually from the age of 10 to 17. So if you are aged 10-17 and have committed an offence that is provided within the criminal legislation, then you are juvenile offender.
Do these kinds of children as offenders go to prison?
Courts usually consider this as the very last resort. The main custodial (prison) sentence for 12 to 17-year olds is depending on a given country the Detention and Training Order, which
usually lasts from four months to two years. It combines time in prison with time in the community under supervision of a probation officer.
How does it feel like?
If you have been in trouble with the law but want to get back on the straight and narrow, it can be difficult. Being tempted back into crime, not being able to get a job, not having enough money, family problems and staying away from drink and drugs are some of the problems people can face when trying to turn their lives around. But it can be done, and if you do it will not stop you achieving everything you want to when you are older.
