Should 10 & 11 year olds be charged?

So in another string of kids attacking other kids on April 3rd a 10 year old and an 11 year old girl attacked another 10 year old girl on the playground.


Quote:
The girls, ages 10 and 11, face aggravated assault and other charges for the attack on another 10-year-old girl at an elementary school playground the evening of April 3. The girls are accused of stomping on the victim and breaking her hip, police said.

The injured girl said the other girls pulled her off the monkey bars and attacked after she told the girls to stop splashing water on her 8-year-old sister in the school playground. Police said the victim was repeatedly stomped on the head and legs.

The victim remains hospitalized and is expected to undergo at least one week of rehabilitation at a hospital. She has three pins in her hip to keep the bones in place and may eventually need a hip replacement, her mother said

So my question to you all is, should these two girls be charged? I was watching Headline News and one attorney said no, that the two girls should get detention where they have to write "I will not do this ever again" at least 100 times. Why? Because juvenile detention would be to traumatic for them.

I think they need to be in juvenile detention or something very similar. I could care less if they are 10 & 11, they knew what they were doing.
