There is no place in Finland for children who behave violently. This is what Elina Pekkarinen, the authority supervising children’s interests, says.

Elina Pekkarinen says that new housing needs to be established for violent children. Children need a home where they can get a variety of support. There must be a lot of adults with the right training. Children need the help of a psychiatrist, for example.
