Pros And Cons Of Wellbeing
Have you ever had the rush of going out at the center of the night? Be watchful, on the grounds that a few urban areas and towns in Texas have established a high schooler check in time.

For instance, the city of North Richland Hills maintains a law ordering that a man less than 17 years old years old must not be out amid the hours of 11:00 pm to 6:00 a.m, Monday through Thursday. Numerous different urban communities are considering doing in like manner. I strongly agree with this approach for a few reasons. Firstly, due to their regard for wellbeing. Having this actualized will help shield the youth from being casualties of wrongdoing. Indeed, all are helpless to a degree, yet the fact of the matter is that youngsters are more at risk. They are more vulnerable, and pretty much powerless against being taken advantage of.

Again, this is in favor of the wellbeing of citizens in the community. If the opportunity to make some difference in the community presents itself, would you not have the desire to? Particularly when it concerns the wellbeing of not only adolescents, but all citizens in the community. Even if you do not have kids, all of us can relate because we were all kids once. The idea that kids under the age of eighteen ought to be free to roam the streets after 10 p.m. is faulty as it fails to protect everyone. A curfew for adolescents will bring them valuable boundaries which can transfer into other areas of their lives. Some may have no boundaries or discipline at home and at least they will learn to respect this

    A curfew would create a safer life for teenagers who may fail to realize the risk of being outside at night. Most people know the consequences of becoming tired. Being sleep deprived leads to irrational decisions and loss of motor skills. Allowing teenagers to stay out later would increase the risk of poor decisions being made. These decisions could include illegal behavior but also poor social decisions like saying something you wish you could take back. Drowsiness while driving could prove fatal for a teenage driver and any surrounding people due to decreased reaction time. This also does not only effect teenagers when they are driving but also when they are a pedestrian. It has been proven that driving while tired is just as bad as driving intoxicated. Being out later only increases the risks of being in an automobile accident for young drivers or pedestrians. The additional issue of teenage drivers and pedestrians being out at night is visibility. For young drivers, their inexperience and delayed reaction time is only more greatly hindered when it is dark outside. The inability to see pedestrians and large animals, such as deer, in time will be much higher if no curfew is enforced. This could pose a safety threat to the driver as well as people…

    Curfew Law in Arizona

    • 1475 Words
    • 6 Pages

    Many cities in the state of Arizona have put a curfew on all kids. Kids under the age of 16 cannot be out unsupervised between 10 pm and 5 am. Kids 16-18 cannot be out during 12 am to 5 am. Our country is a free country and allows parents to control their own kids how they choose. Who is to tell a parent how to raise their kid? The government should not be allowed to bully parents and give them rules for their own kids. These curfews are not allowing parents to control their kids to their liking. Many people feel curfews hurt teens rights, are unconstitutional and ineffective. Studies show that curfew do not lower the crimes that teenagers commit. Curfews hamper the teen’s right for free speech by not letting them congregate at certain hours. They go against what America was built for - religious, political and economic freedom for all. . The 1st amendment states the right of the people peaceably to assemble. This amendment is broken by having a curfew. Many people believe curfews stop the crime rate in juveniles. However if a teenager is going to break laws what is to stop them from breaking the curfew law along with it? A curfew does nothing but restrict law-abiding citizens. The curfew law is the easiest law for teens to break, on purpose or on accident. Sometimes things such as car accidents happen, causing traffic. This later causes a teen to be late for curfew, and are caught and charged as juveniles for something that was not even their fault. Curfews are just setting teens up to be charged as juvenile delinquents. Anything that can be done during curfew can be done after and before curfew. This law is just keeping teens away for a few hours until curfew is up and they go do drugs, drink, etc… Thus there is no point to a curfew. When a child is at home during curfew they will become bored and try and figure out ways to be entertained. Some may include breaking curfew or getting high or drunk. The more teens are bored…

    Yes, making curfews for teens can reduce the risk of them getting into trouble during some hours of the night. But don’t you think that if they have curfews not only is there going to be teens that break the curfew but also it would increase the amount of crimes being committed…

    Last weekend, the curfew kept one of my friends from driving under the influence of alcohol. It also kept one of my friends from driving after a long and tiresome day. Driving white under the influence of alcohol or fatigue will greatly impair your driving abilities, and the curfew effectively kept my friends from being unsafe on the roads after midnight. Another example that was in the news recently that supports why a curfew is necessary is the death of a boy named Wilberto in the town that neighbors mine. The officers in this town don't necessarily enforce the curfew law, and a freshman boy's life was taken because of it. He left his home illegally (he didn't have his license) to drive with his girlfriend around 1 a.m. While he was driving, he became distracted and spun off the road, killing himself and seriously injuring his girlfriend. If the curfew law had been enforced more strictly in that town, Wilberto's chances of getting killed or hurt would have been much slimmer. An argument against a curfew might be that teens have the right to be on the road at any time they would like, and that a curfew law is imposing on their freedoms as human beings and citizens…

    Some people may argue that, freedom for children, children may have a reason. The curfew will make the children feel neglected and this may cause them to rebel. Many will have part-time jobs, for example in fast-food restaurants or delivering newspapers. Others will wish to participate in activities such as church groups, youth clubs or school trip.…

    According to document one, some teens resent curfews and feel that it is unconstitutional. Parents and teens argue that the laws violate minor's freedom and that the First Amendment is evidence of that. Parents should determine when their children should be in the house not the government. Statistics show that most juvenile crimes happen between 3 pm. And 6pm, therefore youth curfew really don't serve a purpose. The money used on enforcing curfews could be put to better use, such as after-school recreational or educational programs. According to experts youth curfews are more strictly enforced in minority neighborhoods rather than white areas, this can worsen racial tensions.…

    Teen Curfews

    It’s a very different world for my teens than it was for me; I was a teenager in the nineties. For the most part, I think kids want curfews and rules set by their parents or guardians. It gives them a sense of security, knowing someone cares for them. Curfews are often needed to prevent teens from getting in trouble late at night. A curfew should slightly vary depending on the situation. Besides parents placing curfews on teen; you now see malls and cities placing curfews on teens. Curfews are good but at what point are we overwhelming teens with all of these limitations?…

    In the U.S., cities are debating if teens should have a curfew in order to keep them out of trouble and safe. During a person's teenage years, teens often feel like no one understands them; they are trying to seek their own independence and most of the time it ends them getting into trouble. Having a curfew in place also means that kids under the age of 18 have to be under some sort of adult supervision and keeps teens of the roads at later hours. Parents tend to feel more relieved when they know their child is home safe. Society believes that if a teen is given a curfew, they will be safe and make better choices and parents will know where they are at all times.…

    There is a bad thing about having the parents decide the curfew that it would some parents would decide that they can stay out but they have to come home. That would be dangerous but some parents are strict, so they would not allow that to happen. This will be much better because the parents know what's best for their own and would not be careless about it. To let the parents decide the curfew is way much better.…

    High School Curfew

    • 596 Words
    • 3 Pages

    If there was a sporting event such as a high school football game and it ended after the curfew, the police couldn't pick up all of these people. A curfew would also not only be a hastle for the teenagers who are out after the curfew, it would also be difficult for parents and police in forcing the rule. Nobody wants to be woken up at 11 in the night by a police officer banging on you door just to tell you that your son or daughter was found outside after a certain time. It seems like a very unnecessary thing to wake someone up for. It would also be a problem for the police who instead of finding real crime, are wasting their time picking up kids off the street for walking on the sidewalk. It would be a disaster if someone was killed because police response was not quick enough, but it would be worse if the police were preoccupied with a petty crime such as a curfew violation. In conclusion setting a curfew is a very bad idea. It would be irrelevant because it is such a small offense that someone committing a serous crime would not think anything of it. It also would get innocent people in trouble who were only walking home from someone's house or coming home from a school sponsored event. Finally it would be a hastle for everyone involved in it, the…

    Curfew Laws

    • 280 Words

    I believe that there should be no curfew laws for teenagers. The setting of a curfew should be up to the teenager themselves and their parents. I believe this mainly because an enforced curfew law would simply result in more teenagers getting in trouble with the law. Teenagers could accidentally break the law if they are unaware of what time it is, traffic could cause a teenager to be late and therefore break the law. There are too many opportunities for this law to be broken and therefore it should not exist. Being a teenager is already extremely stressful and I feel as though many adults forget this. Teenagers have so much to deal with, a blend of school, social, and family lives causes there to be an ungodly large amount of stress placed…

    Adults always say how that they wish they were young again because a person's teenage years are the times that they can go out and have fun. Teenagers dream of going out and exploring the world with their friends. They dream about going on midnight runs to get food and laying in the back of a pickup truck gazing at the stars. Young people will not be able to fulfill their dreams if they are being restricted. A 10 pm weekday curfew and a midnight weekend curfew unfairly interferes with young people's lives because it takes away their freedom, it takes away their freedom, and it prevents young people from doing things that they may need for school or work. Freedom is very important to everyone, especially young people. Teenagers want to go out and be with their friends. I was at my friend's house one weekend…

    -This option is appropriate for the youth than it is for the adults for many reasons. Youths under the age of 18 are still developing in the mind and are not yet as focused as an adult would be otherwise in life and think less of the future and live within the moment thinking that these situations don’t mean anything for their future. Therefore commit these minor crimes which majority of the time are first timers anyways, so they yet don’t have the experience of life.…
