...website, “Youth’ is best understood as a period of transition from the dependence of childhood to the independence of adulthood and awareness of our interdependence as members of a community.” Youth is a more fluid category than a fixed age-group. This statement alone tells us about how complex the term “youth” is since, as we all know, there are infinite differences and varieties between an individual from another individual, a group from another group, and an entire culture from another culture. But generally speaking, there are numerous ways on how to determine people from the youth today and to later find out that these observations are very much lucid and manifested. There are many possibilities as to how to determine the differences between the youth nowadays and the youth before. Stating the main characteristics of today’s generation alone is enough to make a comparison from then. These personal characteristics may be further categorized into four main divisions: Physical, Social, Emotional and Intellectual. Physically, we can see how fashion drastically changes from time to time. As compared to before, the youth today have clothing which tends to be a whole lot showier and less conservative, most especially to girls. Also, they are more likely to be concerned about bodily image than the youth before. And unfortunately, most of them have bad diet and sleep habits and, as a result, low energy levels that may affect their daily performances. Socially, the youth engage into...

...children who choose to follow the wrong crowd and become one of the statistics of the juvenile courts system. DELIQUENCY AND STATUS OFFENCE DEFINITION Juvenile delinquency can become complicated because of age limitations and the laws that the justice system has to deal with for children of such a young age. Delinquency is a behavior of a delinquent child, a child who has violated the law ("Juveniles And Age Status Offenses", n.d). If committed by an adult age they would then be called criminal. Children who have not been disciplined well they are beyond parental control. Children display these actions towards adults, teachers, and anyone with authority. Some children decide to act out because of neglect. Neglect is when a child is not being taken care of properly by parents or guardians. Status offences involve the conduct that would not be a crime if committed by an adult. Actions committed are considered to be a violation of the law because of the age of the child and their status as a minor. Any child under the age of 18 is considered as a minor. More than 20% of juvenile arrest involves minors ("Juveniles And Age Status Offenses", n.d). The most common types of status offences are truancy, violate curfew, underage drinking, underage smoking, running away, and governability. Status offenses can be different...

...games and the effects on youth Bilton Lands Com 156 5/26/13 Violence in video games continues to get worse, but what does this mean for the youth of today? As the violence in video games gets more graphic people continue to wonder if the youth of today can understand the difference between fantasy violence and real violence. Some experts believe it is up to the parents to teach the difference between fantasy violence and real violence (Cullotta, 2012). With more and more video games coming out, this is getting harder and harder for parents to be able to shield youth from. But does this mean that the violence is really an issue? There are studies out there that show, as video game sales go up, violent crimes continue to go down (ProCon.org, 2013). “Exposure to violence in media, including television, movies, music, and video games, represents a significant risk to the health of children and adolescents. (ProCon.org, 2013). Does this help prove that it is just video games that causes the violence in youth? ProCon.org continues to go on and say, extensive research evidence shows that media exposure to video games, can contribute to aggressive behavior and violence, along with nightmares and the fears of being harmed. Craig Anderson PhD. the director of the center for the study of violence, states through ProCon.org that there is a significant link between violence in video games, and the behavior which causes violence in youth (ProCon.org, 2013).

Conclusion Learning about Youth Violence Youth violence is a serious issue in today’s world. Youth violence is on the rise throughout the world. These violent acts are being done daily in schools around the world. Numerous factors are involved when it comes to youth violence. The top three reasons are peer pressure, parental violence, and being bullied and victimized. Youth peer pressure is one of the most frequently referred to forms of negative and positive peer pressure. It is particularly common because most young people spend large amounts of time in fixed groups (school and subgroups within them) regardless of their opinion of those groups. Peer pressure can be beneficial depending on the teen friends. While it is true that teens start spending more time with their friends and are influenced by these peers through peer pressure, parents need to remember one simple truth: your teen will never forget the values you have given him.

...Phoenix July 29, 2012 History has proved over time that there are two types of young adults in the world, those who make the decision to be successful and those with the “I don’t care attitude “and intrigue with the life of criminal behavior. The reasons that young adults make the choices that they do vary greatly in difference. Three of the reasons mentioned by young adults as to why they choose the bad road involves having a horrible younger life, peer pressure and even the excuse of boredom. We have young adults who choose to entertain criminal behavior therefore, we must also have in turn a system that can be measured in the deterrence of criminal behavior among youth. Our current system does not seem to be as effective in improving this rising problem. To effectively be able to deter some of this criminal activity in youth, we need to gather information on why a youth chooses to be involved in this type of behavior, and there are many theories to this question. One of those theories is labeled as the Genetic Theory. The genetic theory states that criminal behavior is inherited just as hair color or eye color is. It is theorized that embedded in these offenders is a genetic code that causes them to make certain decisions and be involved in criminal behavior. This theory also states that anyone can look at a child’s parents and determine whether or not the child is going to be an offender. I find this theory not to be accurate. For one, there...

... When speaking about the similarities and differences between adult and juvenile court there are many of both. The same process applies between the two of them but the main difference are ways the person can be sentenced, constitutional rights, and the things that they will talk about while in the court room. Another difference between the two is when talking about juvenile court and the precautions that come from that. Youth jails are more for rehabilitating the youth and making them see what they did wrong rather than forcing harsh punishment on them. Adults have the right to be tried by a judge or a jury of peers, in juvenile court it would be the judge making the decision on what the punishment would be. When talking about juvenile court there are a lot of times where the parent must get involved because the child is underage. The guardians might be questioned wanting to know whether they had any idea of what was going on with their child. The judge might want a youth’s parent to do something like monitor what is going on with their child and making sure there following what they are supposed to be doing. Juveniles also do not have an option to post bail unlike adults. When a child is in a detention center they are in there for how long they are appointed for, they are not able to post bail in order to get out before that date. Adults have the right to post bail if they are eligible for it. There is a difference in sentencing options between juveniles and...

...there are hundreds of thousands of people in the world that are unable to go to a home at night and sleep in a nice warm bed. What's even worse is that a lot of these people are children, and have never known what it was like to sleep in a bed without any fault of their own. Our neighbourhoods are filled with homeless children and families that deserve the simple things that we may take for granted every day. As we grow older we concern ourselves about the youth that will soon take care of what we accomplished and built to improve our lives. 33,000 Canadians are homeless on the street, 11,000 of which are youth (" Report on youth homelessness", 2012).That is a large chunk of our youth not able to experience or have the same choices as we might have had in our lives. Every person is able to improve or make a change to better this world and environment, and we especially need our youth to help us grow and make a difference in the world. We need to help get our youth off the streets and empower them that they can make a difference, and they do matter. People become homeless for many reasons; however, the most common reason is the inability to pay rent. ("Homelessness in Canada", 2012) Many people may think that people are homeless because they put themselves in that position, therefore; no one shows sympathy for their demise. The truth is that homeless people at one point in their life were exactly like you. They may have had a house and a job and a car, but because of tough times...

...William Patton In this essay I am going to address the differences between juvenile court and adult court. I am also going to talk about the definitions of delinquency and status offenses. I will briefly describe the variables that correlate to the juvenile crime rate and make recommendations for reducing juvenile crime. There are several differences between juvenile court and adult court. “According to the Department of Juvenile Services (2014) History of Juvenile Justice in the United States,” from a historical perspective the juvenile court systems is relatively new. It was stated that in the late 1960‘s that youth did not have constitutional rights. In 1967 the U. S. Supreme Courts ruled that even though juvenile courts were civil proceeding, individuals subjected to these proceedings still faced potential loss of liberty. The Supreme Court ruled that all youth offenders in juvenile court proceedings that faced possible confinement have the following constitutional rights: The right to receive notice of charges, The right to obtain legal counsel, The right to confrontation and cross – examination, The privileges against self – incrimination, The right to receive a transcript of the proceedings, and The right to have an appellate court review the lower court’s decision (The Department of Juvenile Services , 2014). However, many of these juvenile courts vary from state to state. One difference between juvenile court and adult court is one’s constitutional...
