Child Soldiers Day 1

                

I think that child soldiers are victims because children are vulnerable to manipulation and can easily be tricked by lies. child soldiers in my opinions are not perpetrators because they are not old enough to make the right decision and may not have enough life experience to do the right thing, children are known to be easily tricked into thinking what they are doing is okay but a child should not be a soldier but instead they should be going to school and enjoying their childhood instead of fighting in a war and risking their precious fragile lives. Children may not know right from wrong if they haven't spent their time learning. They may become numb to acts of murder this may distance them from society and have an impact in their future social development.

Armed & Underage

these children should not be held responsible for their actions because many of them do not have a choice or a say in what they do. in the article they talked about the children being easily manipulated and fearless which is proof that these people brainwash the children to such an extent that they no longer feel proper human emotions or morals.
