in my opinion child soldiers are not responsible for their immoral actions and they are tricked  into fighting with drugs and most of them are after revenge. They are not taught whats right. They are given cocaine gun powder and marijuana. So i will let you decide

Child soldiers should not be prosecuted. They arent the roots of the problem. If anything, prosecution and detentions should be the last minute resorts. Most of the child soldiers dont know what they got into as they were forced into it after despair from other losses. They were given fake hope by those who used them for their own benefits a.k.a commanders. More times than not, it was not their choice, more times than not, they ended up suffering from this choices and becoming the victims. Unfortunately, their unreversable actions that they were forced and tricked to do make them the perpetrators as well. Persecution, would be injustice towards children whose innocent life was taken away...nevertheless, their actions are still facts, they killed, they have done crimes, and it should be taken into consideration, not only that but also what they went through and who are the roots to this types of problems a.k.a commanders who take in children.

The article is an unbiased article because I did not feel strong emotions when reading it. All I felt was facts being presented and how the government tried to deal with the issue. It was kind of complicated to understand because of the government terms used within the article. The article articulated the accusations of each group of people as well as the defenses of each group of people. Personally, I believe that child soldiers should not be out on trials for their crimes because they only commited those crimes because they were manipulated with drugs.

The number of child soldiers in Africa have increased in the past decade. This article states real facts about child soldiers in Africa. It is difficult to comprehend because this is the government who wrote this article. It states the important events that occurred in Sierra Leone.
