Child soldiers are victims of cruel recruiters who take advantage of their innocence, forcing them to commit acts that no child should ever experience. They are given drugs to brainwash them and make them unaware of what they are doing (Helping to heal child soldiers). The only things they know are the orders they’re given, orders that they can either follow or be killed (Child Soldiers: Victims or Perpetrators). Child soldiers should be given amnesty as it is unjust to prosecute a child for actions
Should child soldiers be prosecuted or given full amnesty?. Child soldiers are being persecuted around the world for crimes they were forced to commit. I think that the child soldiers should be given full amnesty because they were forced to kill. And they were forced to do stuff they didn’t wanted to do like drink alcohol and take drugs.

According to the United Nations, 14 countries around the world are recruiting children and used in armed conflicts as informants, guards, porters, cooks

I believe child soldiers should have amnesty because their commanders force them to be in war and give them drugs to take so they can go kill tons of innocent people. One of the many reasons why child soldiers should have amnesty is because if they don’t get in the commander will kill he/she if they try to run away because they have no choice but to be drugged and go kill or get killed in general.

Should Child Soldiers be Granted Amnesty or Should they be Prosecuted? Although not everyone knows it, there is a huge tragedy that is, and has been, going on even at this exact moment.
