An unruly act breaks a law that only applies to children
The legal definition of an unruly child varies by jurisdiction, but generally, it refers to a minor who exhibits behavior that is disruptive or disobedient, often violating laws or parental rules. This can include actions such as truancy, running away from home, or other behaviors that reflect a disregard for authority. Unruly behavior is typically addressed through juvenile court systems, which may offer intervention programs rather than criminal punishment. The focus is often on rehabilitation and guidance rather than punishment.

The opposite of behavior is non-behavior or inactivity.
Unruly behavior typically requires intervention from authorities, such as law enforcement or juvenile services, to address the actions and their impact on the community. This can involve legal consequences, counseling, or rehabilitation programs aimed at correcting the behavior. The goal is often to provide guidance and support to prevent future incidents. In some cases, parental involvement may also be necessary to address underlying issues contributing to the behavior.
A delinquent child can commit a crime that's illegal for someone over 18 (Ex: Murder) while an unruly juvenile commits a crime that's not illegal for someone over 18 (Ex: Smoking)
The two approaches for dealing with juvenile offenders are rehabilitation and punishment. Rehabilitation focuses on addressing the underlying causes of the juvenile's behavior and providing support to help them reintegrate into society. Punishment involves holding juveniles accountable for their actions through measures such as detention or probation.
