This is truly tragic but the situation must be dealt with rationally. The boys need psychiatric help. Let a couple of psychiatrists evaluate them and see what they recommend. Punishing them, naming and shaming them or even killing them will achieve nothing. We should be asking why this happened, how did these children become so violent? No child decides to commit murder or rape out of the blue. Something happened that set them on this path. The goal should be to get to the root of the problem and take measures to prevent children from going in the same dreadful direction.
i agree with you......punishing them harshly would be of little help
these kids seriously need help............punishing them would ruin any chance of correcting them
until they dont understand that they were at wrong!!!
and we need to know wht could have been the reason behind this kind of mind set of an 11 yr old!!!
and as kids learn only from their environment i think the parents and everyone around have a lot of contribution in wht they are know!!
i mean wht are the odds of an 11 yrs old truning into a psychotic murderer...and at such an innocent age
