We have a system currently in place that punishes children differently than adults, because of hormonal and brain changes. That being said, the age of adulthood in Atlasia is 16, so I think half of Section One is invalid. For 14 + 15 year olds, I would disagree with placing them as adult sex offenders for mistakes done as a child. They should be properly punished under the Child Services, instead of Adult.

Is Part 2 a temporary or permanent act? This seems like an unneeded measure to be honest. I mean if the goal is rehabilitation, then punishing them for trying to restart their lives seems counter-productive. I believe strongly in punishing + treating sex offenders fairly, but this will only cause them to become even more of an outcast.

Hormonal and brain changes doesn't mean that they can't read penal code. Period. Young thugs shouldn't get away with their crimes just because their young.

And do you really believe in rehabilitation of sex offenders? We saw what happened in Sweden when they tried to do it and it failed.

But what you're proposing opens them to getting murdered because they send their 17 girlfriend a picture on snapchat
