The Legal Age; Did You Know?

Did you know that the age of criminal responsibility is different in every country?
Shockingly, in states like North Carolina the minimum age is 6 years old! and 7 is the minimum age in most states; for federal crimes the age has been set at 10. So a child can be punish and be treated like a subject to penal law sence the age of 7 in the Unite States of America.
In countries like Bangladesh, India, Nigeria, Tanzania and Thailand, the minimum age is 7, In Nepal, Australia and Uk, the age is 10, Germany, Italy, Japan, Vietnam, the minimum age is 14, and in international criminal court, Belgium and DR Congo the minimu age is 18.
Some states refuse to set a fixed minimum age, but leave discretion to prosecutors to argue or the judges to rule on whether the child or adolescent ("juvenile") defendant understood that what was being done was wrong. If the defendant did not understand the difference between right and wrong, it may not be considered appropriate to treat such a person as guilty.
Interestingly, in Chile the minimum penal age has been set at 14 and fortunately has been created a special sistem to be aply until the age of 18, to help the child.

This differences make us think how countries developed judge small children, opposed to what you coul believe.

Do you imagine a child of 7 years old in jail?
