Juvenile Jury was the program for kids where a panel of five kids solve people's problems.

Premise[]

The Juvenile Jury was a panel of five young children 10 and below. They were presented problems sent in by the studio audience and/or home viewers (usually they were problems of other kids). Occasionally, celebrity guests would come by and present problems of their own.
