The Effects of Juvenile Delinquency
By Lesley Barker

The most obvious people affected by juvenile delinquency

are the victims. Whether the crime involves theft, vandalism
or violence, the victim always suffers loss. The victim may
incur expenses related to lost wages, health care, or
psychological care in addition to the cost of replacing
damaged or destroyed items.
The juvenile who commits a crime suffers effects that he or she
probably unable to predict. He or she may lose his or her freedom while
being incarcerated or placed on probation. The juvenile may lose ground
academically as well. Although replacement in residential detention
centers for juveniles may be appropriate consequences for the
adolescent’s criminal actions, it also puts him or her in relationships
with other delinquents, who may be more sophisticated or influential.
This makes recidivism likely and, in many states, when a juvenile older
than 14 becomes a repeat offender, he or she ca be tried and sentenced as
an adult. The delinquency may even have future consequences on the
adolescent’s college and career choices.
There is a correlation between juvenile
delinquency and drug use, gang involvement,
alcohol abuse, and sexual behavior. All of these
issues challenge communities by making
neighborhoods unsafe and costing large amounts
of public money to be spent on law enforcement
and school safety.
Young people who commit serious crimes before they are 18 years old
challenge the future for everyone involved. They may be acting out to
protest perceived abuses that have been perpetrated against them. Thy
may believe that there is no future for them outside of a life of crime.
They may be expressing anger or frustration directed against another
person or group or looking for approval from a gang. Whatever the
motive, juvenile delinquency affects too many American individuals,
families, and communities. It is serious problem that challenges the
efforts of government agencies, politicians, educators, faith
communities, and nonprofit organizations alike
