In the United States, the legal age for criminal responsibility varies by state, but it generally ranges from 6 to 12 years old. Most states set a minimum age around 10 or 12, below which children are typically considered incapable of committing a crime. However, some states allow for exceptions in serious cases, enabling prosecution of younger offenders under certain circumstances. Additionally, juvenile justice systems often handle cases involving minors differently than adult courts.
