Many people have always come to some sort of conclusion that when a juvneile committs a crime as an adolescent then they are doomed for a life of crime as an adult. The interesting thing I have discovered which is absolutely foregin to me at least is that there are two types of dependency for a life of crime. The two types I am refering to are adolescent limited deliquency and life course persistent delinquency. Adolescnent liminted deliquency deals with juveniles who are brought into crime as a juvenile on the basis of a need for acceptence by a group whether it be their peers their familiies or anyone close to them in life. Adolescent limited deliquents usually come to a sense of thought that a life of crime isn't what they need for acceptance which helps them brake from the chain later on in life.
Life deliqunets can be desribed as individuals who always feel that their life needs to be involved in some sort of cirminal activity and without it their life has no purpose or meaning. Life deliquents have had their lives taken from them so to speak at an early age thorugh a number of factors that have occured in the home; I.E. Parents always fighting, difficulty in school facing a need for acceptance. Life deliquents feel the only way they can achieve "peace" if to involve themselves in crime which will lead to praise from their peers but won't lead them to hapiness but a continued life of crime and time in a prison.
