yes, they are still kids. they aren't responsible for the accident even if he/she does it purposely or not. they don't fully understand the effect of hitting someone by their bikes. the kid may be aware that the elderly will be hit but the kid can never tell the impact of hitting it purposely if it was the intention. but still kids are kids. they are not adults. so why let them suffer. that's why there are parents to guide their children.
