[ send me this paper ]
In 12 pages the author writes 2 chapters on the topic of juvenile delinquency and the home/social environment. The introductory of the paper states: "The issue of juvenile delinquency and the home/social environment is one of major concern to families, schools, law enforcement agencies and society as a whole. There has been an influx of juvenile delinquents in today's society, ranging from those who are involved in truancy, to gang activity, to those who are convicted murderers. Juvenile delinquency is prevalent across the nation. There is not one certain paradigm of pedagogy for this occurrence. Juvenile delinquency is cross-cultural and cross-racial. It does not know any restrictions on socio-economic class or religion. When measured by official statistics, the problem of juvenile delinquency is staggering. In an attempt to address the issue of juvenile delinquency in the home/social environment, the focus of juvenile delinquency has been directed at the home of the individual and the social environment in which he exists. This is done in order to better understand the causes behind the delinquent behavior of the individual." Bibliography lists 8 sources.
