chance vs second chance

Second chance. The first time he is caught is his first chance.

I could buy into the logic of "chance", but it just isn't used that way

Thanks, roger.

But do we say "Give him a chance" or "Give him a second chance"?

We say "Give him a second chance". We might question the logic, but that is what we would say.

Some would think that being a "young teenager" is difficult enough, with most teens struggling with immaturity and impulsiveness tendencies.

So keeping this in mind, he would be given a "second chance" to make better decisions in the future.

Thanks, Punkey and roger.

Second chance.
