Recent figures show an increase in violent crime among youngsters under the age of 18. Some psychologists claim that the basic reason for this is that children these days are not getting the social and emotional learning they need from parents and teachers. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

When considering the reasons for the increased incidence of violent crimes

comitted

committed

by teenagers, one should bear in mind the complexity of the issue. Some people, including

, believe the main reason for

this

resides in the lack of social and familial

support

given to children during their childhood. In the following essay, I will provide Arguments and examples to

support

my opinion.

In contrast

to previous years, parents spend substantially less time with their

This

change resulted in the fact that children

for many hours, and are more exposed to negative social influences.

This

deficit in parental

and direction is especially

during high school years, where teenagers are easily influenced by social pressure.

Consequently

, youngsters are more prone to

acts

such

as drug and alcohol related crimes, and violent crimes. According to the Israeli government,

for example

, 60% of the teenagers who were

covicted

of a crime, did not have an active parental

support

during their childhood.

This

demonstrates, that parents have a major role in the social education of their

, and without it teenagers are much more prone to commit crimes. Aside from parental

support

, teachers have an important role in the emotional

of children. Because they are not a part of the family, children can

move towards

teachers for emotional

in cases where they are afraid to talk to their parents.

This

is especially important in issue like sexual abuse, homosexuality and religious preferences. Unfortunately, over the

last

twenty years teachers have less free time to talk to their students about personal affairs.

This

results in the fact that many teenagers do not have the emotional

support

they need

for

their children; leading to increased emotional difficulties and higher chances to break the law. According to the New York TImes, less than 20% of the children reported they share their social difficulties with their teachers.

This

illustrates that

to students. In conclusion, I believe that lack of parental and educational

support

are the main reasons for the increased crime among youngsters. Both parents and teachers should provide a
