Jacob, under 18 isn't "child". I'm very cynical when I hear that children have been maltreated etc by Israel and others. A 17 year old is NOT a child [other than in extreme instances]. They are a minor. A child has to be prepubescent in my book. After puberty, it's an insult to them to call them a child and they will not like the description [unless it gets them off the hook for some antisocial behaviour]

An 80 kg thug heaving rocks or molotov cocktails or shooting people is not a child. Even if they are a misguided 17 year old. Or 16 year old. Or 15 year old.
