Options for treating juvenile offenders beyond incarceration include diversion programs, which redirect youth away from the justice system and into community-based services. Restorative justice practices focus on repairing harm through mediation between the offender, victim, and community. Additionally, counseling and mental health services, along with educational and vocational training programs, aim to address underlying issues and promote rehabilitation. These alternatives emphasize accountability and support rather than punishment.

How should the juvenile justice system respond to female delinquency?

First, it is a myth that females do not become delinquent; there are young women and girls who do get arrested, often as a result of problems with drugs and alcohol, but these days, also as a result of joining gangs. Poverty, physical and sexual abuse, and lack of parental involvement can also play a role in the delinquency of girls. Studies have shown that the justice system has historically treated girls and women more harshly, under the mistaken belief that it is abnormal for females to become criminals, so giving them a serious punishment will scare them away from further offenses. However, without addressing the underlying factors that lead to delinquency, punishment alone does not work. The truth is that the juvenile justice system is overburdened and underfunded, and young women are often given little counseling, no therapy, and little guidance about how to change their lives. Certainly, girls who steal or commit assault deserve punishment of some kind, but first offenders should be treated differently from repeat offenders. Rather than just focusing on locking up juvenile offenders, prisons should also provide role models who can help these girls to develop better coping strategies. Many juvenile offenders are illiterate or come from homes where substance abuse (or even sexual abuse) was common. While juvenile offenders do need to pay for their crime and understand where they went wrong, a combination of counseling, education, and job training may help to give them a better path than what they had been on and prevent them from returning to prison later. Unfortunately, we are living in a time when the emphasis is on "law and order," but this alone will not solve the problem of juvenile delinquency, whether by males or by females.


Locking your vehicle doors while driving provides better protection in a collision by preventing occupants from being ejected?

Locking your doors is just plain provides better protection. Besides being ejected which is a subject I know nothing about, anyone can walk up to you car and open the door if it is left unlocked. Locking your doors makes you slightly less vulnerable to predators and muggers.

Cannot get locking plate ring back in place on 94 gmc steering wheel don't know the order it goes underneath the locking plate?

If you are asking about the small circlip that holds the locking plate down, it goes on top of the locking plate. There should be a spring on top of the turn signal cam then the locking plate goes on top of that. A special locking plate depressor is required to hold the locking plate down, then the circlip holds the locking plate in place when the depressor tool is removed. Hope that makes sense and works for you.
