Families have also experiencedthese years.More families consist of one parent households or two working parents;,children are likely to have less supervision at home than was common in the traditional family.This lack of parental supervision is thought to be an influence on juvenile crime rates.Other noticeableof offensive acts includeexperience or failure in school,theavailability of drugs and alcohol,and the growing phenomenon of child abuse and child neglect.All these conditions tend to increase theof a child committing a criminal act,a direct cause and effect relationship has not yet been established.
