PROTECT OUR RIGHTS - RAISE THE AGE TO 21 FOR JUVENILE COURT SENTENCING AND RECORD SEALING PURPOSES.
THIS PETITION IS ADDRESSING TNE URGENT CONCERN TO RAISE THE JUVENILE COURT AGE TO 21 FOR RECORD SEALING PURPOSES.
I AM PETITIONING THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA AND EVERY OTHER STATE IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA TO RAISE THE AGE TO BE CONSIDERED AN ADULT IN COURT TO 21 YEARS OLD. IN NORTH CAROLINA, 16-YEAR-OLD TEENAGERS ARE BEING TRIED AND CONVICTED AS ADULTS. MOST SCIENTIST AND PSYCHOLOGIST HAVE RESEARCHED AND AGREE THAT THE PREFRONTAL CORTEX, WHICH IS RESPONSIBLE FOR SKILLS LIKE PLANNING AND DECISION-MAKING, IS ONE OF THE LAST PARTS OF THE BRAIN TO MATURE AND MAY NOT HAVE FULL FUNCTIONAL CAPACITY UNTIL THE AGE OF 25. MOST TEENAGERS WHO HAVE TROUBLE WITH THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM HAVE MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES THAT MAKE THEM UNABLE TO COPE WITH THE WORLD AS OTHER INDIVIDUALS DO. THEY NEED COUNSELORS/THERAPISTS AND A SUPPORT GROUP, NOT A CELL SIMILIAR TO A DUNGEON THATS SURROUNDED BY VIOLENCE. WITH THIS BEING SAID, THE TEENAGERS THAT FACES CHARGES AS AN ADULT WHEN THEY ARE JUST A JUVENILE EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTIES THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THEIR ADULT LIFE WHEN IT COMES TO GETTING A JOB, HOUSING, EDUCATION, AND FINDING A SAFE AND FAMILIAR ENVIROMENT TO THEM TO GROW AND PROSPER. THE U.S. GOVERNMENT AGREES THAT YOU ARE NOT AN ADULT AND CANNOT DRINK OR USE TOBACCO PRODUCTS UNTIL YOU ARE AN ADULT AT 21 YEARS OLD.
I AM ASKING THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA AND EVERY OTHER STATE IN THE UNITED STATES TO RAISE THE AGE OF JUVENILES FOR SENTENCING AND RECORD SEALING PURPOSES TO 21 YEARS OF AGE.
JUVENILES SHOULD NOT FACE DIFFICULTIES THROUGHOUT THEIR WHOLE LIFE AND BE SET UP FOR FAILURE BECAUSE OF A MISTAKE WHEN THEY WERE A CHILD. THIS LIMITS THE INDIVIDUAL'S EMPLOYMENT AND HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES WHICH AFFECT EVERYONE, AS A WHOLE, IN OUR SOCIETY. THIS LIMITS THE JUVENILES CHANCES TO DEVELOP AND GROW TO THEIR FULL POTENTIAL AND ALSO HINDERS THEIR ABILITY USE THEIR SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE IN A WAY THAT OUR CREATOR MEANT FOR THEM.
I STARTED THIS PETITION BECAUSE I WAS ONE OF THE JUVENILES THAT HAS SUFFERED FROM JUVENILE CHARGES SERIOUSLY AFFECTING MY QUALITY OF LIFE. I WAS JUST A KID AND SO ARE THE OTHERS GOING THROUGH WHAT I WENT THROUGH. I HOPE EVERYONE WILL SIGN AND SHARE TO REACH OUR GOAL AND HAVE THE AGE OF A JUVENILE RAISED TO 21!
