Explanation:

Young people should have more opportunities for restorative justice, as they are less in control of their emotions and more likely to act impulsively or violently.

It is argued that advocates of restorative justice are sometimes overly critical of traditional judicial forms of punishment (as if they have nothing to recommend them) and, consequently, or relatedly, are uncritical and short-sighted when it comes to any limitations or shortcomings of restorative justice.

Thus, it might be argued that the picture painted of retributive justice by proponents of restorative justice is overly negative, indeed one-sided.

It is possible, some argue, that the imposition of pain through punishment - generally signalled to be one of the least positive elements of retributive justice - can actually be beneficial, so long as it is appropriately administered and is proportionate.
