₊˚⊹ — Do you believe all humans deserve equal chances (at all points in their life) to change (for the better or worse)?

I would like to elaborate on this one, but it’s tricky. Maybe this would work better as an open ended question.

For those who say yes, I ask, for you, that does apply to criminals, right? Even the worst of them? And does your view change depending on remorse or guilt that these people feel?

For those who say no, I ask, what about you? At your lowest, do you feel the same way? That that person, the one doing terribly (for whatever reason it may be) doesn’t deserve to get better? And if you, in this case, say no, you DO deserve to get better: why not those around you? —

I doubt this will be answered the way I intend, so I may re write it later… >_<

As always, thank you to those of you who answer!! ^_^

I believe that yes, everyone deserves a chance at redemption. Even the worst of criminals should get the chance to review their actions. Honestly, if their remorse or guilt pushes them to do better, that's good! But even if they don't feel that same guilt, I do believe they can learn to do better. They might not think what they did was worth regret, but I believe change can still come their way. Yk? Human brains are very malleable, so change can def happen to anyone. At least, thats my two cents
