Do you think the punishment the teens received was more worthwhile than a typical penalty of jail time, fines, or black marks on
permanent records? Have you ever received a reprimand for wrongdoing that was comparable in nature? Do you wish a former punishment would have been replaced by this type… what would have been more worthwhile to you in a similar situation?
(I think there was an article attached, however since you don't have it I'll try my best.)
Jail time, Fines, and black marks on permanent records will follow a teen for the rest of their life. It will impact that and could even cause them to not get a job. This is a punishment that lasts a lifetime. If the punishment they received didn't follow them around and allowed them to learn their lesson now rather than later, yes I do think it was more worthwhile. The teen needs to learn that what they did was wrong and face the consequences now, this will cause them to stop doing what they are doing now. If it impacts the teen later in life then they most likely will not stop doing what they are doing until finally it all catches up with them.
You didn't include the answer choices, but a question with the same wording popped up on the quiz I just took and the answer for me was B : They suspect something strange may be going on.
