many teens commit illegal acts for 2 main reasons, money and excitement, this being said there are far more great kids out there who work hard at getting an education plus holding down part time jobs and helping out their families, so it is just the few who make it shameful for their families by robbing and drugging, these kids have made their choice and it will land them behind bars in no time.

Why does it matter whether boy or a girls' are in a gang or not?

Because gangs are a form of organized crime. Older gang members encourage young kids to commit crimes and do things that they would not ordinarily do for the sake of the gang. They exploit children and ruin lives. Once a boy or a girl joins a gang, he or she is likely to go to prison and die young. That's why it matters.


Why Parents should de penalized when their teenagers commit crimes?

While under the age of majority (18 in most countries), young people are the responsibility of their parents or guardians. It is therefore reasonable to expect parents or guardians to assume some responsibility for the behavior of the young people they are responsible for raising to adulthood. Thus when young people seriously misbehave a reasonable argument can be made that some of the blame for this behavior may be attributed to bad parenting and the parents or guardians therefore are to some extent responsible and liable for the crimes.
