JUVENILE DELINQUENCY

A juvenile is a young person.

Juvenile delinquent is a young person who regularly commits crimes.

First, we need to know the meaning of crime; crime is a serious offense punishable by law.

when a youngster involves him/herself in crimes such as smoking, stealing taking hard drug, sexual immorality, violence and the likes of them all, that child is said to be juvenile delinquent, when such is the case, the child is usually taken to juvenile homes where their disorder is corrected or where they are disciplined.

WHO SHOULD BE BLAME?

The parent and the youngster are to be blamed.

REASON

With reference to the bible, the parent ought to train up their  children in the way they should go so that when they grow up, they will not depart from it. but recently, parents are doing otherwise, they pursue their career with keen interest, leaving their children out of their priorities. as a result of neglect, their children become adventurous and sometimes end up committing crimes in their quest to discovering things for themselves .

And to the youngster, it is said that 'show me your friend and i will tell you who you are' 

it will not be an over-statement to say that some youngsters end up becoming delinquent after despite the proper upbringing. this is due to PEER PRESSURE. probably to please their peers so as so to have to have a sense of belonging or to join what is in vogue and leave in crime. they do this ignorant of the fact that they're bringing destruction upon themselves.

CONCLUSION

In conclusion, parents and their youngsters need to have a good relationship. the parents should pay attention to their youngsters and listen to them because most youngsters are highly inquisitive. The youngsters on the other hand, should learn to hake to instructions of their parents and live Godly and morally justified life. By so doing, they will attain their dreams and become a blessing, not a liability to the society at large.
