By the way, technically a child can be legally killed, but the states have the right to decide the circumstances.

Excuse me?

Excuse me?

It's called justifiable homicide. For example, if a teenage child is trying to kill you, you have the right to self-defense. Some states even have capital punishment for minors. But again, the states have the right to decide the circumstances.
