The Queensland government is defending its youth justice policies amid accusations from carers and insiders that children are being held in conditions akin to abuse.

There are reports that children as young as 14 - including one with the mental capacity of a five year old - are being placed in isolation rooms in the state's police watch houses.

It comes amid a crackdown on youth crime in the state, ahead of an October election.
