Causes of youth crime !!!

Introduction In the UK (I think in the Malaysia is the same too), youth crime today is growing steadily into the uncontrollable gang warfare, so often seen on TV or in movies. Children as young as 11 are joining gangs (crews) and becoming part of the society that nurtures violence and street crime. And what can police do with the offenders? Why do children commit these crimes? Because they have nothing to lose. Children brought up in a less privileged environment, with poor education and not much chance of good employment can find themselves automatically placed into the category of unredeemable. No time is spent attempting to get them off the streets and into something productive; hence the fact that over the years these kids have been systematically forgotten and rejected by society. As their way to combat this, the kids themselves have formed their own societies and wayoflife. This society is mainly orientated by peer pressure and the macho type competitiveness that spawns crime – they suffer under the delusion that ‘street credibility’ holds more worth than a sense of morality.
