In some areas of the US, a curfew is imposed, in which teenagers are not allowed to be out of doors after a particular time at night unless they are accompanied by an adult. What is your opinion about this ?.

In some regions of America, a
curfew
seems to be imposed
although
it has not been imposed in Japan for many years. There should be from background to impose a
curfew
and
this
essay will discuss the pros and cons of it.
First
of all, curfews may not be imposed in safe areas. Safe areas mean that the crime rate is low. If teenagers go out at night in an area in which there are many
crimes
happening, they would be involved and be in danger. Because they do not know how to protect themselves from the possible dangers of
crimes
.
Also
, it is possible that teens might commit
crimes
due to the fact they are curious about everything and they are easily involved with their friends.
In addition
, the high crime rate sometimes means that parent's interest in education is low.
Therefore
,
children
get interested in
crimes
, drugs, rapes, robberies
instead
of studying.
Consequently
,
children
will not get good jobs and will become poor,
then
will commit
crimes
. So, bad sequences will be repeated. In
such
situations, it may be necessary to impose a
curfew
.
However
, there may be an opinion that a
curfew
should not be imposed. Because it is not a good idea to restrict
children
's actions and
children
's freedom should be respected
instead
. I agree with
this
idea to some extent. If a teen is less than 15 years old, they should not be outside after 9 o'clock.
However
, teens over 15 years old can understand what is wrong. In conclusion, in dangerous areas teenagers might be restricted to go out at night,
however
, ages over 15 can be exempted. What is a more important thing is to educate people including parents.
Otherwise
, situations will not change.
