Essay / Research Paper Abstract
"Status offenders" are juveniles convicted of crimes that would not be considered such if they were adults. For example, running away from home, truancy, etc.; are all considered to be criminal activities only by juvenile courts. This 6 page research paper analyzes the controversy surrounding the penalties given to status offenders and the likelihood that probation will become the most viable answer to the problem. The opinions of reputed caseworkers are cited to evidence the idea that while harsher sentences for status offenders must be ruled out, the lack of some penalty is unacceptable and therefore, probation-style programs are the most likely answer to the problem. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
