Juvenile Crime and The Sealed Record
[ send me this paper ]
A short, 3 page argument about how the juvenile justice system is failing and youthful offenders are not being deterred from committing more crimes. The writer argues that a 15 year-old delinquent should share many of the same penalties for committing an offense that a 22 year-old delinquent would for committing the same offense. Most important to the discussion is the idea that a juvenile's record should not be "hidden" after they've reached adulthood. Individual members of society should be able to make judgments based on someone's entire record and then determine whether or not crimes of their childhood are worthy of special attention. No Bibliography.

Juvenile Delinquency & The Home Social Environment
[ send me this paper ]
In 12 pages the author writes 2 chapters on the topic of juvenile delinquency and the home/social environment. The introductory of the paper states: "The issue of juvenile delinquency and the home/social environment is one of major concern to families, schools, law enforcement agencies and society as a whole. There has been an influx of juvenile delinquents in today's society, ranging from those who are involved in truancy, to gang activity, to those who are convicted murderers. Juvenile delinquency is prevalent across the nation. There is not one certain paradigm of pedagogy for this occurrence. Juvenile delinquency is cross-cultural and cross-racial. It does not know any restrictions on socio-economic class or religion. When measured by official statistics, the problem of juvenile delinquency is staggering. In an attempt to address the issue of juvenile delinquency in the home/social environment, the focus of juvenile delinquency has been directed at the home of the individual and the social environment in which he exists. This is done in order to better understand the causes behind the delinquent behavior of the individual." Bibliography lists 8 sources.
