causes of juvenile delinquency?

Answer 1

Parents that are not attentive to their children, parents whom are not supportive of their kids, parents who abuse eachother in front of the kids, parents who are emotionally or physically abusive to the kids, instability in the home, lack of nurturing, hopelessness, no goals in life because of discouragement, etc.

Answer 2

Bad parenting - be it lack of involvement or carelessness. No matter what the economic background. You can be dirt poor and black, white, yellow, brown, or red and still be a caring, involved role model for your children. You can also be financially well-off, give your child every material item they want yet not give them attention and neglect their emotional and disciplinary needs.

You lead by example. Families are more independent and apathetic than what they used to be. Kids are growing up being bombarded by inappropriate content from the media. They are growing up too soon with no solid moral background to fall back on. The parents need to be educated to provide this - families need to band together for the children.

Answer 3

I've worked with kids most of my life, and I daresay 99% of problelms begin in the home. Poor or absent role models, abuse and neglect, alcohol and drugs, ignorance...the list goes on and on.

Now, the cure? Sorry, I wish I knew....

Answer 4

Demonic possesion, bad parenting, jealousy of a sibling, being bullied at school, attention neglect, depression, I can go on and on.
