Status: Completed
Due today!~ The Term paper is to be in APA format and the body of the paper is to be between 3-4 pages. The body of the paper does not include the title page, or reference page. This is to be of high quality, free of spelling and grammatical errors, and of original work. You will need at least 3 references. I want you to reflect on the Juvenile Court System today. Discuss the most pressing problems facing American youths today. Discuss recent changes intended to control delinquent behavior. What changes do you feel need to take place in order to prevent juvenile recidivism? Discuss the association between family size and delinquency. What are some reasons you would expect large families to have more delinquency? What are some reasons you would expect small families to have less delinquency? Discuss gender differences between girls and boys and how these differences can influence delinquent behavior. You can choose to write on one of these items, some of them, or all of them. It is completely up to you. Your grade is determined by how well you support your argument utilizing the reading assignment, web site information and any other documentation that can help you make a fair assessment. What I do not want is a regurgitation of what is in the text. Expand on the text, do not repeat it. Document your facts utilizing standard APA style.
