How will teaching help? They know it's a crime, and therefore know it's wrong. What's left to teach?

They are pretty much lost causes, that's my point. Something needs to be fixed so such upbringings don't happen. They know it's a crime, but in their minds, what they're doing is not wrong. 

If they're a lost cause, then why not punish them? You can't just let them get away with it because they're a "lost cause." They should be thrown in jail for their crimes. Maybe they don't see it's wrong, but if the punishment is so bad that they don't want to go back again, then that will act as a deterrant, and thus keep them from committing more of these crimes even though they don't see it as wrong.
