Haven't read the book but this may be helpful to you:
"<span>In The History of the Kings of Britain, Geoffrey of Monmouth proposes to set forth the history of the British kings starting with Brutus and ending with Cadwallo. Geoffrey undertakes this endeavor at the request of the Archdeacon of Oxford who presents Geoffry with an ancient text to translate from British into Latin. The history of the British kings shows how fortune, jealousy, and betrayal can lead to the demise of an entire nation. On the other hand the text also details the qualities that are necessary in a good ruler who unites his people in peace. While Geoffrey's account reads like a novel, the basis for the book is historical and gives the reader a generalized view of British history."

Answer: The young age and mental development of juvenile offenders help them work toward rehabilitation because at a younger age, juveniles are more willing to change their mindset or change their habits. When you are an adult, it is usually more difficult to change one's mindset about ways of life and things they have been doing for a long time and it can be more challenging to rehabilitate. Additionally, juveniles tend to be more willing to trust someone and build a relationship with someone who they know could help them. And that is how they can rehabilitate, by trusting and understanding the people who are there for them and can guide them through their rehabilitation. Adults may not be as open to trust people or to build relationships, which can also hinder their rehabilitation.
hope this helps :) and this is just my opinion :)
