Just because the guidance is negative in nature does not always mean that it will lead to an equally negative outcome. In this article we will discuss some potential parental and family factors that have been believed to lead to juvenile delinquency. We will also discuss to what extent family factors help…

advocates’ reliance on the “underdeveloped brain” arguement. If brain development were the reason, then teens would kill at roughly the same rate all over the world. They do not” (Jenkins 91). The brain is not fully developed at age 25 but before those years it is being developed; before those years one is adapting to the world surrounding them.
