...Our criminal justice system tends to swing back and forth between being more punitive or rehabilitative in nature. During the 1990’s, the pendulum swung to a more punitive approach. We wanted to get “tough on crime,” and this has led to many problems within our criminal justice system, particularly for juvenile offenders. The film “Juvies” was only a glimpse at how our current system is failing today’s youth, not helping them. It’s appalling how kids-- human beings who are still developing and growing cognitively-- can be locked away for such lengthy periods of time for criminal acts. Incarceration can have many drastic effects on a juvenile, and is more harmful than it is helpful in the long run. Even if a juvenile isn’t sent to prison for...

...Erika Mari C. Japor BSTM-II TREE PLANTING ACTIVITY February 28, 2016 For every Saturday of February, the CTHRM department conducted a community service as part of the three-fold function which is a tree planting activity at Rocohan Elementary School, Barangay Cotta. The main purpose is to strengthen communities and connect not only with the people but also with Mother Earth. It may sound basic but restoring the environment is truly important because most of the problems here in the world is caused and triggered by us. However, we must not lose hope for humanity as long as we have each other, anything can be resolved. [pic] CTHRM students lounging at Rocohan Elementary School As an Envergan and Tourism student, I strive for excellence in academics and extracurricular activities not for the sake to have a better stand but to mold myself to be a better person in the future. But what interests me the most is the news of going out of school with my Tourism and HRM clan for special events; for instance, this month's community service. It's an unforgettable experience that in return, I would be able to serve others in my fullest potential and capabilities. With the bustling schedule I have on hand like Miss Enverga, COHREP, and UFTE, it was tiring I have to admit but I know I could not neglect this activity as it may seem belittled and something just to pass the time. But I believe these comings and goings is a challenge as Tourism students. We may be all over the...

...Should Youths be treated as Adults in the Canadian Justice System? Varun Thapar Due Date: March 1, 2011 Mr. Roberts The Youth Justice System was originally created in 1908; and was brought about because the government considered facilitating the youth so they wouldn’t be given the same sentence as adults. This early incarnation of youth legislation was called the Juvenile Delinquents Act This act was for young offenders with a guiding philosophy that juveniles are not criminals but children who need direction. An offender was classified to be between the ages of 7-18 could be tried in this system. The accused does not have a right to a lawyer, hearings were closed; and the charter did not apply. Examples of sentencing options were light and included fines and placements in foster care home. In 1984, the Young Offenders Act was changed to the idea that youths are less responsible for crimes than adults. Some of the amendments of this new act were a narrower range of age, 12-17 year olds and the accused must be advised of right to a lawyer, the Charter rights apply, and the accused could be sentenced to open or closed custody, and could be sentenced to 5 years for murder. In 2002, harsher punishments were introduced to the Act along with a change of name to the, Youth Criminal Justice Act. The driving idea for this act is that tougher sentences prevent crimes but rehabilitation is vital. It has been is debated as to whether or not youth should be given the same sentences...

...zAnti-Trees, Anti-Nature, Anti-People Regime: KARATULA - Pampanga's Statement on the planned cutting of trees in Mabalacat City by Kabataan Partylist Central Luzon on Monday, November 19, 2012 at 12:31am · Anti-Trees, Anti-Nature, Anti-People Regime Another Massacre? 486 trees, which are fifty years old, along the Old MacArthur Highway, Mabalacat City, have “X” marks on their trunks. These marks are made by DPWH, as a sign that they will cut these trees, because “because many people have died due to falling branches.” according to Antonio Molano, DPWH Central Luzon director. However, there are no official records that support his claims. Ironically, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, which should be the department that will defend the environment, is the one who submitted the tree-cutting plan to the Office of the President. Anti-Trees Not only in Mabalacat, but also in the City of San Fernando, Pampanga, where the present government planned to cut 576, which are in the side of the MacArthur Highway, from Brgy. Telebastagan to Brgy. Baliti. Their reason is that, there are many motor accidents, which is caused by the trees, as if the trees are moving and the motorist aren’t. But the real reason is they want to widen the road, to lessen the road traffic. But it was proven in Brgy. Sindalan, that that’s not the solution. Actually, there are alternative roads in Pampanga, which the government can improve, like the one in Mega Dike. Unfortunately...

...Scared Straight Todays youth at a glance is becoming more troubling by the day as social media trends such as the “Knockout Game”, schoolyard fights, along with sprees of theft and even in some cases acts of murder. We are living in a time where the parental relationships with children are at a state of degeneration, as many kids within different demo-graphs are high risk to be involved with these activities and in most cases dire outcomes. Numerous cases of theft, violence, and general delinquency are becoming top tier phenomenon’s, as general delinquency mode of operation for this adolescent generation. As we make an analysis of this ordeal as a whole, one would find that there are many factors that can be said to be the common denominator in its contribution to so many misguided children and young adults. We are moving out an age where child and parental communication is being hindered as the general family structures of todays home are growing into a state of total degeneracy. Many children and teens often grow up in single parent homes and are exposed to inconsistencies in discipline, physical, verbal and substance substance abuse only to go to a school to interact with a social group that thrives in these themes in a more concentrated manner. Interestingly enough, the effect of these causes tends to end in outcomes that can’t be redeemed lightly from as many kids, undergo long-term sentences in juvenile detention. Other obstacles such as teens and young adults...

...Aloe Vera Extract as hair grower and Sampaguita as fragrant Abstract: Hair loss is a problem that faces millions of people, including men, women and even children. Aloe Vera has been used by many different cultures to stimulate hair growth, and it is safe, natural and affordable. It’s no secret that Aloe Vera is good for your hair and scalp.

Sampaguita, the national flower of the Philippines, It’s fragrance can be a bit cloying in a small space like an automobile, hanging from the rear-view mirror… but out in a natural setting like a garden, an occasional whiff of sweet scent drifting over from a large flowering bush is most pleasant, the researcher will use the Sampaguita extract as a fragrant to Aloe Vera extract.

...Parents should be punished when their child breaks the law. Do you agree? yes .. for example when a young person drinks to excessive and goes to the hospital .. the parents should pay. make a list of possible problems with children ... consider an age range, ... parental guidance and the limits ... and the consequences Abstract A “get tough” on juvenile crime perspective seems to dominate public opinion as school shooting incidents continue to occur across the nation and the media reports young children committing violent crimes. After virtually every incident, questions emerge about the juvenile's parents and what role they played (or should have played) in their child's life. Parental responsibility laws, varying greatly within and among the states, have appeared as one answer to these questions. Although these laws would seem to garner great public support under the new punitive attitude toward juveniles, no recent empirical studies have been conducted to determine if the public believes that parents should be held responsible and punished for their children's crimes. This dissertation organizes the different forms of parental responsibility laws into three separate categories. The first category is the civil liability imposed on parents when their children damage someone's property or inflict personal injury. The second category is the “contributing to the delinquency of a minor” statutes that apply to parents or other adults who encourage a juvenile in some way to break...
