Modern society is becoming more concerned about the increase in juvenile crime. What do you think is the cause of the increase in juvenile crime? What solutions can you suggest?

More people are concerned about increasing the number of young crowds committing crimes. From my perspective,

this

phenomenon stems from the consumer culture and the advancements of the Internet.

To begin

with, perhaps one major factor contributing to

this

issue is materialism, it has shrunk the parent's available time to care about their

children

because they need to work and pay for their expenditures. In the past, in most families, only fathers worked outside and mothers looked after their kids and did some chores, those enabled mothers to stay with and teach their adolescents.

Additionally

, another possibility is the fragmentation of the local community. In

further

explanation, in the past, parents could seek assistance from their neighbours to look after their

children

instead

of leaving them on the Internet in the present. With the advancements of the Internet, rather than playing with neighbours,

children

tend to enjoy online types of communication,

such

as SNS, and it makes them easily connect with some ex-convictions.

For example

, a statistical report has shown a dramatic increase in the number of burglars arrested cases including some naive students, which were operated by some local gangster groups.

However

, one of the most effective solutions will be financial aid for parents who have kids. If each family is assured that they have enough money to live, so they don't have to get an additional job and sacrifice their precious time to work overtime, they could teach their

children

. One good example is my mother, who has spent her 20 years doing a part-time job to earn money for her family and pay monthly expenditures

such

as house, food, and clothes.

In addition

to that, operating an online association for juvenile groups hosted by the municipality can resolve the problem.

For instance

, managing a virtual forum helps each member of the community monitor other suspicious behaviours or deter a child from making friends with criminals. In conclusion, there must be explicit reasons why we see the increased crime among young people but financial support from the government and a new type of local community could be solutions to make the situation better.
