Criminally prosecuting two children for sex (which is not by force) is ridiculous.Of course in Wisconsin the hearings will be held in Children's Court, closed, and any adjudication and sentences will be expunged from their records when they reach 18 years of age.
Are you trying to say that children caught in flagrante delicto are NOT deserving of prosecution, if a complaint is filed?

Yes, criminally prosecuting children for having consensual sex with each other IMO is not the way to discourage kids from having sex. Furthermore, it gives fuel to the Liberal assault on Statuatory Rape laws (they claim SR laws are criminalizing sex (the act) rather than sexual exploitation of children. In Wisconsin their argument would be correct.)
This is not a crime like a property crime or assault, for which legal action should be taken.
