Negligence Disguised As Ignorance ‘A child suffering the consequences for a crime he/she willfully committed? Oh no!’ This is what I hear whenever someone speaks against trying children as adults for the extremely terrible crimes they commit. It is illogical and immoral to allow young murderers to have an advantage over the justice system simply because of their age. If a child can learn right from wrong and take freedom into their own hands by willfully committing heinous crimes‚ then

through life without looking at the fine print. “Ignorance is bliss” is the mantra that these people follow‚ and the underlying reason for why people decide to choose this path of life is closely linked to how basic human nature is programmed in everybody.

Plato‚ in "The Republic‚" describes humanity’s inability to escape the pit of darkness known as ignorance due to a limited perspective. Unfortunately‚ society is not fully aware of the limited perspective‚ because people choose the easier path; as a result‚ even when civilization is pointed towards two different paths- one towards knowledge and enlightenment and one towards a much easier decision- it chooses to remain in the darkness. The prisoners would rather allow their imaginations to cloud

Socrates said‚ “There is only one good‚ knowledge‚ and one evil‚ ignorance.” Ignorance is the lack of knowledge. A person who is ignorant does not even know they are uninformed or unaware. Ignorance is evil because it is rooted in assumption. Assumptions are always theoretical and can be disproven. Many times during the day people need to make assumptions or guesses. For example‚ a father who has raised his children assumes he will be taken care of by those same children as he ages. His children
