Juvenile Crime
Introduction
Juvenile crime is a serious problem that requires attention from the police, legislators and parents. The causes of juvenile crime include poverty, poor parenting, drug use and abuse among other things. This article will discuss what causes juvenile crime and how we can prevent it from happening in our communities.
Juvenile Crime
Juvenile crime is a serious problem. It’s a growing problem and it will continue to be so unless we take steps to address it.
Juvenile crime has increased in recent years, with more than 1 million juvenile arrests each year and thousands of children going through the justice system every day. The numbers are alarming: between 1980 and 2014 there were nearly five million juvenile arrests for crimes such as murder and assault; during this same period, at least half of all young offenders were arrested multiple times before reaching their 18th birthday—and most of those arrests were for violent offenses like robbery or assault weapons possession (which can often lead to longer sentences).
What are the causes of juvenile crime?
Peer pressure
Family problems
Drugs, alcohol and other substances of abuse.
Gangs and organized crime.
Poverty and unemployment (for example, having a parent who cannot support you).
School dropout rate (if you don’t go to school, you won’t learn anything).
What are the consequences of juvenile crime?
Juvenile crime is a serious issue that has far-reaching consequences for both the juvenile and his or her family. If you’re a juvenile, you may be sentenced to prison time and/or juvenile detention centers. If you commit crimes as an adult, those convictions could lead to felony charges that are used as part of criminal history checks in the future.
Juvenile offenders also face a lifetime of potential legal troubles:
They may end up with criminal records that haunt them forever (and sometimes can get them into trouble with police officers).
They will likely have difficulty finding employment after leaving prison because employers may be wary about hiring ex-convicts; some companies even require background checks before hiring anyone with even a misdemeanor conviction on their record!

If you don’t know if your child has been involved in juvenile delinquency or abuse cases—or even if he or she has been accused of committing such crimes—it’s important to take action now before things get worse!
Conclusion
In conclusion, juvenile crime is a serious issue that requires attention from all levels of government. It is a problem that we should all be aware of because as parents we have to take responsibility for our children’s actions and protect them from harm or injury.
