Juvenile delinquency

Reference no: EM133087589

In many inner city areas, young people are forced to engage in violence because of the circumstances under which they find themselves. Many live in very violent communities without the possibility of leaving most of their lives, are faced with crowded schools with few caring adults, have very little hope for good employment, have parents that are addicted to drugs, are responsible for emotionally and financially taking care of younger siblings and have to face a brutal police force that is sometimes motivated by bias.

1. Should we as a society blame a child who grows up in such an environment for criminal acts?

2. What role should society play in making sure that crime is prevented at an earlier age?
