Some people belive that a crime is a result of social problems and poverty, others think that crime is a result of a bad's person nature. discuss both views and give your opinion.

Some people get hold of the idea that problems in the community and financial shortage are the main reasons why a person commits a crime since these

factors

prevent

criminals

from being educated and learning essential

life

skills . Others,

however

, believe that

criminals

have bad personal characteristics which are the most significant aetiology of their behaviour because many people who are at the lower socioeconomic levels would never break the law. In my opinion, the

first

group argument is more correct. From one perspective, instinctive characteristics of

criminals

,

such

as their genes, play the main role in pushing them toward breaking the law, as many other individuals who belong to the same socioeconomic group, would never commit a felony in their

life

.

For example

, the supporters of

this

idea mention the poor teenagers, from underdeveloped part of New York City, who are living by the law, while some other youngsters despite having sufficient financial resources, joining criminal gangs which strengthen the assumption that intrinsic

factors

such

as genetic features, encourage the latter group.

However

, others believe that

although

some genetic

factors

may predispose humans to perform outlaw behaviour, these are not the main contributors in occurring them, as environmental

factors

such

as poverty and social problems are necessary to facilitate to commit crimes.

For instance

, many convicted felons have stated that if they had access to education, which they did not due to poverty and lack of social supporting systems, they would have acquired the essential

life

skills to manage their

life

and prevent them from engaging in outlaw activities.

Moreover

, if the

criminals

had evil nature, it would have been impossible to correct them by training, while we know many of these people change their behaviour after proper training in prisons. In conclusion,

although

natural characteristics may have some influence on the

criminals

' activities, environmental facilitators

such

as financial difficulties are the main contributors that make these activities occur.
