Should a Child Solider be held up at Guantanamo Bay

What should happen to child soldiers after a war is finished is a very complicated issue. Forcing kids to be child soldiers is very harmful to the child, and can really make them feel differently about themselves. So in result to this, they can do bad things. For example, Omar Khadr a former child solider for Al Qaeda, was sentenced to Guantanamo Bay for his actions at the age of 15. A few things he did was he killed Soldiers and U.S Sargent's. But some speculate if a child solider should be taken to a place like Guantanamo if he's under the age of 18. In my opinion, my mind changed, but this child shouldn't be taken to Guantanamo. That place is to rough for a child. A child who is built up around guns and war is going to make mistakes. But they should be taught better, there still young and have a future ahead of them. He should be taken to a place where he can be controlled and shown what a normal childhood is like. So that he can get fixed up.
