Many offenders commit their crimes after serving the first punishment. Why is this happening, and what measures can be taken to tackle this problem?

In

this

decade, several countries are facing a great number of crimes from the same criminals. After many criminals are released from prison, they repeat their past mistakes.

This

essay will examine the main causes and possible solutions to

this

issue. The two main causes of repeating their crimes are the absence of

morality

and the lack of

opportunity

to live in

society

.

Firstly

, Having

morality

and ethics is one of the crucial things that

people

should possess but the criminals do not have. They do not feel guilty to repeat the mistake;

moreover

, some wrongdoers are proud of their actions or might even enjoy them.

Secondly

, lacking an

opportunity

to work in

society

leads to the same mistake again. In terms of employment, Thai organisations do not tend to hire

people

with criminal records, especially state authority officer positions.

As a result

, they do not earn enough incomes to cover their expenditures and can not take care of a family.

Thus

, they have no choices except stealing or robbery. Some possible solutions to

this

problem are raising awareness of wrongdoers and teaching professional

skills

. In terms of

morality

education, prison authority should instil prisoners a good mindset, including empathy, love for other

people

and kindness. All of

this

will change the convict’s mind to considerate of other

people

that lead to hesitate to commit a crime again.

Moreover

, the

next

step in tackling

this

problem is teaching professional

skills

to them

such

as hair cutting, crafts and clothes cutting out. If

society

does not give them an

opportunity

, they will have

skills

for self-employment.

Thus

, they have enough income to take care of their family and spend on everyday needs.

This

way is a sustainable solution and offenders do not return to crime again and again. In conclusion, lack of

morality

and less

opportunity

to live in a community are the main reasons why wrongdoers repeat their crimes after release from prison.

However

, we can significantly lessen crime by educating

morality

and teaching several

skills

for future careers. Simply

opportunity

for prisoners, we

society

will be improved toward and more peaceful.
