Also when the juveniles are in prison they should get some sort of help or counseling so when they get out they got the help

The juvenile justice system was created for a simple but specific reason‚ and that was to have a separate system for juveniles. Juveniles were treated as adults before the first juvenile court was established in the 1800’s.
