Crime is a very old phenomenon and no one actually knows when it started.
This
problem
 can be seen in societies because of financial problems or lack of education. Despite the fact that some would argue that the
problem
 will correct itself over time, In my view, there is much that can be done to address
this
 issue constructively. One possible reason for increasing crime rates would be poverty, especially in suburbs. When people lose their jobs and face financial issues in answering their daily needs, they turn to

 petty
crimes
such
 as shoplifting and pickpocketing. In
this
 situation, the government can identify jobless citizens and make some job situations for them.
This
 would certainly tackle the
problem
 quickly,
however
, long-term solutions need to be considered for that. A more feasible cause would be a lack of education which comes from schools and families.
This
 leads to both major and minor
crimes
 among teenagers because they do not know the exact rules of society about felonies. As a
first
 solution, the government has to set a policy in terms of teaching laws and rules in schools to children for the educational system.
Similarly
, families need to be responsible for aware their children of a consequence of being criminals and monitoring them in different ways. Ignoring laws can be considered another reason for
crimes
. Drivers who do not pay attention to the guidelines and carry out

will cause serious problems. If the police decide to suspend their driving license, they might pay more attention to restrictions
next
 time they are driving. In conclusion, it is true that the
problem
 of
crimes
 in society will probably not be solved quickly.
However
,
that is
 not a reason to avoid taking action. Government, families, and police can take an action to control and decrease the rate of
crimes
.
Therefore
, people will obey the rules.
