Children of Single Parent Families and Delinquency

Deviation can happen in any society or family, but it is mainly related to broken families. Children of the single parent are considered to have high default risk. The reason for childbirth possibility is because the child is either "without mother" or "without father". This can destroy the character of children in many ways. This controversy can lead to an illegal future. A "bad" community where a single parent lives often leads to a crime. Because a social society where a single parent lives well is surrounded by abnormal behavior.

"Most of the teenagers who show illegal acts of all forms are families who can not lay a solid foundation for children," Mopoff said, "Hohn Project Officer Nhlonipho Gatyeni said this is the most vulnerable He mentioned that children from a single parent family use drugs, not girls from two natural parent families, become gang members , I think that there is a high possibility of being expelled from school and becoming a boy murderer.

Numerous studies have been conducted to show that there is a very real connection between illegal acts and criminal acts and a single parent household. Research by Wright and Wright (1994) shows that a single parent family, especially a mother, will lay more children behind two parents later. In fact, the absence of a complete family makes gang members more attractive (Muehlenberg 2002). Sometimes the focus will be removed from the mother and transferred to the father. The role of the father in behavioral problems in childhood is particularly disappointing because there are some reasons why fathers are particularly important in the occurrence and sustenance of offspring crime. For example, a father may be particularly likely to involve a son who is more dangerous than an illegal daughter (Flouri & Buchannan 2002).

Parenting is essential for crime prevention and adolescent violence. Studies have shown that a single parent family may be more harmful than traditional parents' families. Compared with parents' families, the possibility that a single parent family's children are suffering from serious mental illnesses such as depression and suicidal tendencies is some addiction, such as alcoholism and later substance abuse. Children from a single parent family are exposed to certain circumstances that may be at risk of greater crime (single parent family and child delinquency, 2007). These include economic conditions, bad communities, parents' rejection and social reactions to them. Exposure to sexual and physical abuse penalties also increases the risk of crime
