DO NOT Charge Juvenile Offenders as Adults
[ send me this paper ]
DO NOT Charge Juvenile Offenders as Adults. Probably since the times that the Romans conquered Gaul, teenagers have been making immature decisions; we might even say it is a behavior pattern of the age. Charging them for their offences in an adult court, sends out the wrong message, and does not treat the core problem of inappropriate neighborhood, poorly funded public schools, and corrections racial profiling. In a creative country such as ours, we must put our resources into alternative programs and counseling for troubled youth, rather than directing them through the adult criminal court process.

Education Of Minority Students In A California Juvenile Hall: Social Justice Issue
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. One of the primary methods by which juvenile delinquents within the California penal system are rehabilitated and ultimately reintroduced into society is through the means of education. While this approach is both prudent and successful in its ability to redirect wayward youth, there is often a segment of this population that does not reap the same beneficial outcome as the rest. Minorities within California's juvenile penal system are frequently left behind where educational programs are concerned, inasmuch as their ability to learn and communicate is far less developed than that of their white counterparts. However, because of the over-representation of minorities in the California juvenile justice system, this issue reflects how the entire educational program may be wholly ineffective to prepare minority youths for life outside juvenile hall.

Factors Influencing Juvenile Delinquency
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page discussion of the myriad of factors which influence juvenile delinquency. Specifically addresses family structure and factors such as maternal separation and parental rejection, noting that while such factors have been demonstrated to be important determinants his correlation is far from perfect. While one might jump to the conclusion that juvenile delinquency might be directly accounted for by the irresponsible actions of a parent or specific family structure, there has been one incident after another when parents took every possible means of insuring societally appropriate behavior in their children and juvenile delinquency still occurs. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
