A delinquent juvenile is a young person who has committed a crime or violated a law. They may be subject to the juvenile justice system rather than the adult criminal justice system.

When a juvenile commits a crime, they may be subject to the juvenile justice system, which aims to rehabilitate rather than punish. The consequences can vary and may include community service, counseling, probation, or placement in a juvenile detention center. The goal is to address the behavior and prevent further criminal activity.

No! A status offense is ONLY something that would not be a crime if the juvenile were an adult: running away, breaking curfew, skipping school. There may be others, but those are examples.Anything that is a crime if you are an adult is not a status offense for a juvenile.
