What are you held responsible for once turning 18 that occured before turning 18?
Before reaching the age of majority, the law recognizes that adolescents and teens do stupid things due to their immaturity. Therefore, the Young Offenders Act was created to address this. Essentially, it is a double standard in the law whereby the underage offender is treated less severely for their offenses, and once the age of majority is attained; their record is sealed so that the offenses they have committed as young offenders will not follow them in to adulthood. But some "street wise" children are committing horrendous acts of violence against society which has led lawmakers to review the Young Offenders Act. Thus, judges have been given an option to try some young offenders either as adults, or as young offenders. This is to preclude the freeing of stone cold killers back into society after receiving only a slap on the wrist for serious violent crimes.

Explain the difference between the rights ensured for young offoners under the young offenders act and those gauranteed to adult offenders?
I believe the questioner is confusing the term "rights" with "treatment of." Both juveniles and adults possess the same "rights" but the way in which the juvenile offenders acts are written afford much more lenient treatment to juveniles, as opposed to adults charged with identical offenses. This is in an effort to take a wayward juvenile offender who may have made a mis-step due to youth and inexperience, and genltly guide them onto a more law-abiding path.
