The best counterclaim to the statement "Teenagers who commit crimes should not be sentenced to life in prison" is:

**C. Serious crimes, such as murder, deserve serious punishments no matter the age of the criminal.**

This directly addresses the issue of the severity of the crime and argues that the nature of the crime warrants a serious punishment, regardless of the offender's age.
