STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

1. What effect do gangs have on youngsters?

Professional and public attention is being drawn to adolescent gang membership.
because of the negative ramifications for the youngsters involved and the social environment
fabric of communities. According to a recent research, 27,000 10- to 17-year-olds are homeless.
Gang members (Youngsters's Commissioner, 2018: 15), and these children have a proclivity for
violence. A variety of requirements, including inadequate mental and emotional health (Mayor's
Office of Policing McDaniel, 2012; and Crime, 2018).
2. Is it possible for prisoner relationships to improve while incarcerated?
Primary caregivers of young people, mainly mothers, have substantially different
relationship dynamics than those studied in research on the consequences of incarceration on
intimate relationships or the separation of children from their parents in jail. The deployment of
support to young offenders frequently comes at the expense of caregivers, particularly mothers,
who face major challenges such as violence perpetrated by their children (Holt, 2013; Miles and
Condry, 2015), impacts on physical and mental health, and a lack of support from family and
formal support agencies (McCarthy, 2017).
3.What are the negative effects of getting involved in a gang?
Prior study has shown a number of risk variables related with a young person's likelihood
of entering a gang. Gang (Dmitrieva, Gibson, Steinberg, Piquero, & Fagan, 2014, Sweeten, &
Piquero, 2013), indicating that the process of joining a gang begins in infancy and continues into
adulthood. Moves through several developmental phases. The life-course approach focuses on
how these Trajectories are interconnected, thus changes in one impact changes in another (Krohn
&Howell et al., 2017).

Observation

1.1 Effects of joining a gang

(K. S. Williams 2012) analyzes delinquency from a psychological perspective, supporting
Freudian ideas such as id, ego, and super-ego. When the id grows too powerful and the superego
becomes too weak, the ego becomes an antisocial person. According to (Ombato, John Onyango
et al 2013), societal issues such as poverty and a lack of education contribute to adolescent
criminality. Substance usage habits also make children more likely to commit crimes. Higher
rates of divorce are closely tied to broken households.
1.2Reasons why juvenile delinquency is happening
(S. Choudhary 2017) divides the reasons of juvenile delinquency into three categories: 1)
biological, 2) socio-environmental, and 3) other. Personal, psychological, and physiological.
Juvenile delinquency is a persistent issue in today's society; more has to be done. Programs
designed in attempt to correct this problem. (D. Agarwal 2018) seeks to identify the root causes
of adolescent delinquency.suggests an increase in the participation of adolescents in terrible
crimes.
1.3 Juvenile delinquency during pandemic
According to recent research, the COVID-19 pandemic affects crime rates differently depending
on the kind of crime and area. While there was a significant decrease in robbery, burglary,
assault-battery, and shoplifting offenses (Ashby 2020a; Andresen 2020; Campedelli et al., 2020;
Hodgkinson & Andresen, 2020; Mohler et al., 2020; Shayegh & Malpede, 2020), there was an
increase in domestic violence (Leslie & Wilson, 2020; Mohler (Buil-Gil et al. 2020; Collier et
al., 2020; Hawdon et al., 2020; Payne, 2020; Payne et al. 2020).
