Trending topics The land of the PieeE i Leet ene Rt Rect catsss = Imagine a place where teenagers must legally be at home after 10 p.m. and where police officers search the streets for them at night. Imagine a place where the police can arrest teenagers or give them a fine for being on the streets, even if they aren’t breaking any other law, like drinking alcohol or committing vandalism. Does this sound like a science fiction movie about the future? It isn’t. It’s an American city in the 21* century. Here are some facts that might surprise you about life for teenagers in some states of the U.S. Since the 1990s, hundreds of large American Cities, including San Diego, New Orleans, and Chicago, have introduced legal curfews on their teenagers. A curfew means that young people under 18 have to be off the streets and at home after a certain time at night, which varies from 10 p.m. to midnight, depending on the city or day of the week. There are some exceptions. Teenagers are allowed to stay out at night with an adult, or if they are coming home from a job, or an activity at school or church, The curfew laws exist to BRBUBR crime, and to force parents to take more responsibilty for their children. ‘Some studies show that young people's crime has ‘gone down in the cities that have curfews, but other studies say the opposite. People who oppose the laws say that they diseriminatelagainst young people. ‘They also say that the laws oppose the American Constitution, which promises liberty to all its citizens. In a few states, the 6OUirfS have forced certain cities to feMOVe their teenage curfew laws. In the U.S, the legalage for driving in most states is 16, but some states ban anyone under the age of 18 or 21 from criving after a certain time at night, even though they have a driver's license. In South Carolina, which probably has the strictest driving curfew, under-18s must not drive after 6 p.m. in the winter, or 8 p.m. in the summer, unless they are with an adult who has a driver's license, In general, American teenagers aren't allowed to drive a car with more than one other teenage passenger unless the passengers related to them. The reason for these driving lawsiis that car accidents are the biggest Cause of death for teenagers, and two-thirds of teenage passengerdeaths happen in a car with a teenage diver. In Some states, people under the age of 21 have to put a red sticker on their. car license plates to show police thatithey are young drivers. 1 Look at the pictures and answer the questions. 1.

Say which ones are arguing in favor of the laws and which ‘ones are arguing against them. The curfew laws in the U.S. are necessary because they prevent crime. Teenagers often drive dangerously, so society needs laws to stop them. The teenage driving Jaws are necessary because they save lives. Young people's freedom is more important than laws like these. Teenagers are nearly adults. They don't need laws like these. Teenagers usually cause trouble if adults don't control them. 6 In groups. Say if you agree or disagree with the opinions in exercise 5.
