Re: "Tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime"
There are parents that have abdicated responsibility no denying that and their children then influence the other kids who have attentive and caring parents making the whole situation for those parents harder. I have a 14 year old son and a 17 year old daughter who feel their time to be in is very limited compared to a few of their friends while other friends of theirs have even strictor in times then i and my wife impose.
Those kids who have parents that don't care know thats the case and then try to influence other kids to misbehave so they are not alone. As for social service's i am sorry i have neither time or respect for them as i know many people that have gone to them seeking help only to be told to come back when a problem escalates into something serious. By the time that happen's it is too late and early intervention surely must be better then allowing things to get out of control.
