Certain categories of crime are predominately in the JUVENILE CRIME angle statistically. Vandalism, hit-and-abandon auto theft, Tampering with Fire Hydants ( a form of vandalism) while at the fire house- yes in some places ARSON is statistically most common among those under 2l or- Juveniles. Stop and think, Arson is a major crime and can endanger many fire fighters, and risk human life, to put it mildly. There are thus, a number of crimes mainly committed by juveniles or teenagers. Vandalism is nearly always a Youth Crime. I have not discussed purpose-built status offenses only criminal among kids- such as Hooky, going into Adult films underage, juvenile use and possession of Alcohol and Tobacco, these are called by the legal community- (Status offenses) and would not be Crimes if done by an adult. but Arson is increasingly and in some states- the majority of them ( a difficult crime to solve, the fires destroy the evidence!) are set off by juveniles., often in a sordid revenge or reprisal raid idea- yecch.

Why are more children committing crimes?

There are many factors that contribute to children committing crimes, including poverty, family dysfunction, exposure to violence, lack of positive role models, and mental health issues. Addressing root causes such as poverty, improving access to mental health services, and providing positive influences and opportunities for at-risk youth are essential in preventing children from engaging in criminal behavior.


How do people feel when they commit crimes?

A lot of factors determine how someone feels when they commit a crime: the psychological make up of the person, the type of crime, why the crime was committed, etc. If a person steals food because his family is hungry and there is no money to buy food, the person might feel justified in doing it. If a person kills another person, they may feel deeply sorry and regretful. If the person has severe mental issues, the person may not feel anything if he or she kills a person. A person who is deeply psychologically troubled might even feel satisfaction from killing someone or committing a crime. It just depends on the individual and other factors how someone feels when a person commits a crime.

How can criminalising children harm the child development?

Criminalising children can harm them in many ways. Growing up in a locked cell stops the child from the necessary, normal social communications he needs to develop himself so the child can result in self-isolation and generally more faraway from the mainstream of the society. Furthermore, criminalising children makes children feel "different" and frustrated and this can lead to depression and lots of other psychological problems that stunt children's growth. When children commit crimes, people should realize that children are still in a developing state of mind so they are probably not aware of what they have done or how serious the crime is. So the best way is to give them time and let them learn, instead of making them criminals and stunting their growth and vision even more.
