The less teens rely on their parents or guardians the more responsibility they gain for themselves. Teens rely on their parents to take them places like the store, to the movies, to a friend’s house, etc., but if they start driving themselves places the more they start to become more responsible. Teens will start learn how to…

A community correction is something that an individual receives for a crime they have committed. Some of these things that a person receives is based on their criminal record, Probation status, and if they are a repeat offender. Some people are placed in jail or prison, while others are placed on community service, work release, probation, and house arrest. Community corrections affect society in which they are practiced by helping the accused try to lead a normal life by helping them when they are out in the community doing specific tasks, such as picking up trash on the side of the road. There are some people who are put on community corrections to keep them from going to jail. If the crime the person committed isn 't bad enough, then the person is assigned to do this to help do things in the community. This keeps the person from going to jail and this allows other individuals who have committed more violent crimes to be put in jail instead. The jails are already overcrowded as it is. If we allow people who have committed petty crimes to be put on probation, house arrest, or community service, then this allows for other individuals who have committed more harsh crimes, such as murder and theft to be put in jail instead. If everyone who committed a crime was sent to jail, then the jails would be so full there would not be any room left for people who commit crimes to go. They would have to build a lot of jails in every city and state in order to put these individuals behind bars.…
The age of 18 brings about freedom for young people in America. At 18, a person legally becomes an "adult". A person can now buy cigarettes or a home, vote, and even get married. In addition, from their 18th birthday and beyond, the young person is no longer tried for crimes in juvenile courts; now, they are tried in adult courts. But, does one or two years make such a difference between sixteen year olds and eighteen year olds? Is it fair for one person, just seventeen years of age, to be tried in a juvenile court, receiving a lesser sentence for murder than an person just six months older in age who committed the same crime? I think not. Trying juveniles as adults should be constantly allowed because punishment should be based on the harshness of the crime, not the criminal's age. Responsibility and out of date courts are 2 examples of reasons why juveniles should be tried as adults.…
With teenagers things get a little harder. They are torn between being a child and a young adult. You want to be sure they are not doing things they shouldn’t, but you don’t want to pry into their lives too much. They are trying to be independent from you, and do and make their own decisions. Parents of teenagers in our society must learn to listen to what their offspring are saying, especially what they are saying to one another (Stern, Larosa pg.39).…
Now a days it seems like teens are getting their selves into more trouble than they were before. There is a lot of drugs and more dangerous things now to put the teens in harm. Curfews may keep teens safe so they’re not out late in the dark but it sure does not keep them out of trouble. Teens have their own mind and are going to do whatever they please because in their mind they think “I’m old enough to make my own decision, I don’t need my parents to make decision stuff like that. I was a teenager at one point in time and didn’t like my parents making my decisions because I wasn’t a little baby anymore and I knew exactly what I was doing and saying at that age.…
What are the roles of parents? I believe that the role of parents is essential for the growing minds of teenagers. Parents should be there to support me in my time of need or in my time of glory. I should be able to tell my parents everything instead of lying all the time to go somewhere or avoid a certain subject. They should not keep breathing over my neck to know everything there is to know about me by snooping through my room or for me to give them details on what happened at a movie one night. My parents should let me experience the real world and not have me kept locked up in the house all the time. They will not always be there to protect me from the harsh reality of life. Overprotective parents aggravate me because they invade my privacy, they treat me as a child, they have me on a curfew, they do not support me, they are inconsiderate of my feelings, and they do not communicate with me.…
As we grow older they seek freedom and more independence. But sometimes along the way we can break our parents trust. Depending on the parent and the teen, because everybody is different, the consequences are different and the adult or parents usually tightens up their grip with the rules. What does that do? We need to make small mistakes to learn for ourselves and not just from what our parents tell us. For example, you ask to go to a party that you know there will be alcohol at. Your significant other or parent says no because they were a kid once too and know how parties turn out at your age. How is this fair? Most likely they got to experience what parties were like when they were a kid but they put their knowledge of when they were young up against our freedom. What does it really mean to you if you don’t get to experience something for yourself? It’s like when somebody tells you about this one time they saw a mermaid. Do you believe them, and does it even mean anything to you? Studies show that if a teenager is given more freedom they are more than…
