I didn't realize the Supreme Court was deciding the constitutionality of this punishment- listening to it on Up w/Chris Hayes.</P> <P>My viewpoint is no, kids don't understand the long-term consequences of their actions. Sticking a kid in prison for life isn't a punishment when they don't even understand the concept of freedom. I believe they should be punished, but not sure that life without parole means anything to a 14 year old.</P> Sat, 24 Mar 2012 14:54:08 GMT Lunagrl 2012-03-24T14:54:08Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Should-a-14-year-old/m-p/177065#M74913 <P>convicted of murder be sentenced to life in prison without parole?
