Book Juvenile Delinquency in Rural New York  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Juvenile Delinquency in Rural New York Classic Reprint written by Kate Holladay Claghorn and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Juvenile Delinquency in Rural New York The subject of juvenile delinquency almost automatically calls up a picture of tenements and city streets, where traffic and trade and play shoulder one another for room. This report is based upon its study in an opposite setting. The investigators, leaving the main crowded trail, went into country villages that were perhaps feeling the stir of a new industrial life or of an influx of city folk in search of a playground, or perhaps were holding to the old sleepy routine as small trading centers of farming districts. From these they went out to still tinier straggles of houses, clustering along a turnpike or crossroads, and then back to solitary farms far up in the hill country. Among children growing up in the isolation and comparative monotony of the countryside, they found a seepage of delinquency, as a rule little noticed and carelessly handled. AS 111 the city, it covered the range from mischief to crime. No guess is hazarded as to the amount of trouble in comparison with that caused by urban conditions. The answer could be given only through statistics, and in this field statistics are misleading. Therefore, figures are not a feature of this report. But a description is presented which makes clear the causes of rural delinquency among children and the form which it takes. One fact made evident is that degeneracy is not wholly a product of cities. Many of these country children have back of them a sorry ancestry and around them a thriftless family group, often weak in body and mind. The most dramatic instances of this are found in the children brought up in squalor and ignorance by some wretched family which has wandered into a lonely and desolate region of the hills. Not all such groups find their level in the slums; some have still the nomad instinct for solitary places. Here they strip off standards built up by the process of civilization. But in the villages also is found, here and there, the run-out stock which has re mained inert during the period of city migration.

Book A Half Century with Juvenile Delinquents

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Half Century With Juvenile Delinquents: Or the New York House of Refuge J ne'r fifty years ago, in our city, the Society for the Prevention of Pauperism, which finally was trans formed into The Society for the Reformation of Juvenile Delinquents, made its first report. Within this period the whole history of organized effort for the reformation of young criminals, and the rescue of young children from a life of crime, is included. With nearly all the move ments in this direction, both in this country and Europe, the New York House of Refuge, in which the investiga tions of the Society have been practically embodied, has been directly or indirectly connected. The best known and most honored names of the city have been associated with its establishment and progress, and it has enjoyed in their interest and efficient labors a warm and high place. But two of its original Managers are now living. The opportunity to collect personal and authentic statements in reference to its early history, out side of its documents, is nearly exhausted.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Teen-Age: Henry Holt and Company, New York There is another field, which we could barely touch then, but which is deserving of much more thorough study. That is the field of juvenile delinquency. There is not much that we can do about the hardened adult criminal, except to try to develop laws and vigilance which will protect ourselves and our society from them. That, however, is a purely defensive action. It doesn't touch the basic problem. Even if we were able to put every lawbreaker in jail, we still would not have solved the problem. For others would arise to take their places. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jailbait: The Story of Juvenile Delinquency Fortunately, exploitation of children by adult procurers is not common in this country. Most sex involvements of even criminal adults with adolescents are dictated by the passions, not by profit motives. Definitely a certain squeamishness in this respect exists among the worst as among the best of us. Occasionally an adult does turn up who has a stronger stomach than the rest of the world. About the time of the Carol affair, for example, a heavily rouged procuress of forty-seven years was ar raigned for soliciting in the streets for a number of schoolgirl prostitutes. But the case is not typical. Organized vice does not go in for child labor. Even the fringe enterprises leave it alone, for it simply is not profitable: the kind of man who keeps the brothel busy wants more for his money than a skinny schoolkid. And the kind of roué who wants a skinny schoolkid generally does his own promoting - as we shall see. As adolescents approach the age of consent, of course, they become more interesting as prey for organized vice; yet here it is difficult to distinguish, ex cept in a legal sense, between woman and juvenile. More impor tant as a threat to juvenile morals, probably, is a certain type of enterprise which does not sell sex as such, but uses it as a blandish ment.

Mr. Hart's successor was Rev. David Terry, Jr., who had enjoyed several years' experience as assistant superintendent and teacher under Mr. Hart. The managers add in speaking of the new administration, "That when they announce that the institution has not suffered by the change, they at the same time bestow the highest compliment upon Mr. Hart's successor." In this report, the thirteenth, the managers change somewhat the character of the selections of cases of probable reformation which accompany all their reports. "They have chosen," they say, " in some respects to vary their plan, by the selection of a few cases of both sexes in which the reformations effected have to a certainty been not only thorough but lasting. In order to bring out at once the strongest evidences of the great good that has resulted from the moral discipline of the institution, they have confined themselves to the histories of cases of long standing, in all of which the subjects have beeu reclaimed from the most vicious courses, have been married and comfortably settled in life, and are now worthy citizens and respectable heads of families." They also remark that, in addition to the cases published in the Appendix, " they have it in their power to state that two Cases of Accomplished Reformation. young men, formerly inmates of the Refuge, are now studying for the Christian ministry--one of them iu this State, and the other in Pennsylvania," Of one of these young men they say, he " dates his conversion during his residence in the House of Refuge."

Download or read book Juvenile Crime Juvenile Justice written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-06-05 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even though youth crime rates have fallen since the mid-1990s, public fear and political rhetoric over the issue have heightened. The Columbine shootings and other sensational incidents add to the furor. Often overlooked are the underlying problems of child poverty, social disadvantage, and the pitfalls inherent to adolescent decisionmaking that contribute to youth crime. From a policy standpoint, adolescent offenders are caught in the crossfire between nurturance of youth and punishment of criminals, between rehabilitation and "get tough" pronouncements. In the midst of this emotional debate, the National Research Council's Panel on Juvenile Crime steps forward with an authoritative review of the best available data and analysis. Juvenile Crime, Juvenile Justice presents recommendations for addressing the many aspects of America's youth crime problem. This timely release discusses patterns and trends in crimes by children and adolescentsâ€"trends revealed by arrest data, victim reports, and other sources; youth crime within general crime; and race and sex disparities. The book explores desistanceâ€"the probability that delinquency or criminal activities decrease with ageâ€"and evaluates different approaches to predicting future crime rates. Why do young people turn to delinquency? Juvenile Crime, Juvenile Justice presents what we know and what we urgently need to find out about contributing factors, ranging from prenatal care, differences in temperament, and family influences to the role of peer relationships, the impact of the school policies toward delinquency, and the broader influences of the neighborhood and community. Equally important, this book examines a range of solutions: Prevention and intervention efforts directed to individuals, peer groups, and families, as well as day care-, school- and community-based initiatives. Intervention within the juvenile justice system. Role of the police. Processing and detention of youth offenders. Transferring youths to the adult judicial system. Residential placement of juveniles. The book includes background on the American juvenile court system, useful comparisons with the juvenile justice systems of other nations, and other important information for assessing this problem.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Juvenile Offenders in the City of Detroit: With Suggestions for the Establishment of a Juvenile Court and Probation System With the rapid growth of American cities many com plex social and economic problems have arisen which demand patient and painstaking consideration. Upon their proper solution the future stability and progress of our great commonwealth depend. The new social rela tions engendered by the concentration of immense wealth in a number of commercial and industrial centers, by the supplanting of manual labor with machinery, and by the steady movement of the rural population towards the large cities offer the student of sociology a mass of data which must carefully be analyzed before any constructive study is possible.

This book was released on 2018-01-20 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Juvenile Delinquent and the Young Men's Christian Association Some of the ideas of the juvenile court were practiced before the actual formulation of a juvenile court law. The probation system was practiced in a limited form by some judges by the use of suspended sentences. In the state of Maine a separate children's court was established and the probation system was in use, but it was necessary to convict the child of a crime before he could be placed on probation. In some parts of Canada, sepa rate courts were held for children. In New York, some features of the juvenile court law were in use. In Chicago, probation officers were provided by a committee of women, and their ser vices were used by some of the judges without express warrant of law. The juvenile court law as we know it now, took form in Illinois in 1899. If Illinois had not acted, a juvenile court law would doubtless have come about sooner or later, for the reason that the need of special provision for these classes of children was widely felt.
