These Instructions are VERY IMPORTANT
You must ONLY use the required readings. Outside sources are not permitted. You must also use the in-text citation for each answer; this means providing the authors (Gebo and Boyes-Watson), year of publication (2023), and pages you used within your answer for corresponding paraphrased text. If you have an ebook, provide the subsection of the chapter as opposed to page numbers.
Provide in-text citations in parentheses after the corresponding sentence. Example: Paraphrased statement (Gebo and Boyes-Watson, 2023, pp. 111-114 OR Gebo and Boyes-Watson, 2023, Chapter 1, subsection)
**Including in-text citations does not mean you have to quote the text. In fact, you should not be quoting any text but rather paraphrasing it and then stating where the information you provided was taken from. I will not accept answers that are not cited at all or contain incomplete citations.**
Question 1
What age should be considered the legal age of criminal responsibility? Why/how do you think society has adhered to, or strayed from, this age? Be specific. (Hint: Chapter 1) (minimum 100 words, .5pts)

Question 3
The “Get Tough” paradigm is just that—getting tough on juvenile offenders by increasing penalties for juvenile offenses and sending more youth to adult courts. Explain why you agree or disagree with this paradigm. (Hint: Chapter 3) (minimum 130 words, 1 pt)
