Youth crimes

 

Reducing youth crime

Early intervention plays an important role in keeping minors from embarking on a life of crime. Swift and consistent punishment for offences can help reduce the incidence of crime. After serving their sentence, young offenders receive support aimed at preventing re-offending.

Swift justice for young offenders

Young people who commit offences are dealt with as quickly as possible. This is in keeping with people’s sense of justice. Offences committed by minors are covered by juvenile criminal law.

Preventing re-offending by minors

The government is taking the following measures to prevent young offenders from re-offending:

  • Personalised approach

    Every young person is different and deserves support that is specifically tailored to them. For example, an aggressive person can be ordered to attend a course to learn how to cope with and control aggression. The Offending Behaviour Programmes Accreditation Committee (in Dutch) reviews the courses to determine whether they have actually had the desired effect

    As elders, it's important not to compare our children to others it makes the youth feels less important and it lowers their self esteem which the leads into depression and make things we never expected. Let us teach them the right way but not by shouting at them.

    We need the youth and we must see alot of potential they are blessed with
