Latest News from Uk suggests a Lancashire school boy did so after executing this presently 15 year old teenager who has been sentenced for life, being noted in history as the youngest convicted terrorist. The boy is said to have had links with ISIS online. Family members were totally unaware of any such activities of the boy and his behavior at school brought the attention of authorities towards him.

I think a 14 year old boy is capable of many things but I think life in prison sentence is too harsh since he did not kill anyone directly.

Think that Eye condition affected his brain....

I reckon teens are different from the time I was that young and not surprising they do these sort of things, as the wrong crowd of broken homes can cause them to act this way which can harm others. It is important for parents to ask questions and be aware of what the child is up to, and make sure the character of the child is good and try to have a positive influence in their life. I hope the child gets help and can see what caused them to do this and this can help them to move on in their life and make good choices, which is going to see them live in peace with other people.

Incidents as such demand attention, more than ever on how we today are raising our kids. A little while a go (read before social media) expecting a kid going so far as to building links with a terrorist organization was impossible, at least this could not happen without the parents noticing. the widespread of social media and the internet as a whole has released several ill doings in our society along with the advantages and this incident demands more supervision and tracking of what our kids our doing online.

Also social media sites should keep regular tracks of suspicious accounts that could in any way relate with any kind of terrorist act or promotion of it.

Dr. Paolo Gerbaudo captured it in his book :
