SUBJECT: Families who spend more time with their children will be much less likely to have delinquents later in life.INTRODUCTIONIn my research, I want to try to explain the effects of family structure. on juvenile delinquency and find a method to prevent these problems from recurring in the future. This topic is interesting because most children are born with a family, this does not have to be biological, it can also be a guardian. That said, the first thing children learn is what their parents teach and show them, it's like a monkey seeing a monkey perform. If some parents are in difficulty within the home, this can have a major impact on the children who have to witness this abuse. In some cases, it is difficult for parents to take care of their child due to lifestyle. They may work all hours of the day to support the family or be sick. Either way, these types of issues need to be taken into consideration when trying to find a solution that allows parents and children to make time for each other. It is difficult to see so many children in the United States with so much potential for a better future. be classified as delinquents. Even through, there is no fault in the life they have traveled. If their family members or guardians gave more importance to their children, they would not be tempted to become minors. The less communication and interaction the family tends to provide to the child, the more likely he or she is to be encouraged to engage in delinquent activities. child's life. It is tragic to imagine that your child could one day take... middle of paper ........ children can't do it themselves, they need a certain type of community program where they can open their eyes to the reality of their lives. children become a statistic in the criminal justice system. I hope that my research can help in a positive way to apply my ideas to try to prevent our future children from going down the wrong path. Providing guidance and support to minors can help them believe that there is a better future than simply committing criminal acts. However, without the help of their families, their lives will never change, so more children will end up in the system. The family must bond with their child, understand her as a person and try to find her needs, so when she thinks of him, it is positive. Being their role model can change their life immensely, all children want is to look up to someone and a delinquent should not be one of them. Family is key.
