Increasing Juvenile Crime...

school education 
The creation of an ideal for teenagers 
today is more difficult than in the previous 
generations. Because there are now different 
perception and evaluation of human values: 
Who is now the ideal role model for the 
young in the market economy society and 
multi-dimensional information? - The rich 
in money or the rich in knowledge? Why do 
people have to live for the others? Therefore, 
the education of ideal for children must be 
considered the highest priority for the 
family and school. In fact, many families 
and parents are trying to make ends meet 
for their children, while schools consider 
providing knowledge is more important 
than building character. Therefore, the moral 
education lesson now becomes less effective.
Besides, the enhancement of skills, 
knowledge and involvement of children in 
real-life activities are necessary. Children 
can protect themselves if they are equipped 
with knowledge about children's rights, 
taught the skills to protect themselves and 
help them better deal with difficulties in 
life. Adults should also respect their 
children so that they can feel close connection 
with their family, school and community. 
At the same time, it is essential to create 
opportunities for them to participate into social 
and cultural organizations and activities, etc. 
4.3. Management of children in the 
community 
Several researches show that at the age 
of juvenile, if that juvenile is alone, s/he 
doesn’t dare to do anything. However, when 
several spoiled juvenile are gathered, they 
will become very bold and responsive. The 
juvenile criminology has shown that the 
motives for crimes are always proportional 
to the number of participating juvenile. 
Especially, the crowd mentality affects very 
much these subjects. Thus, it is necessary to 
timely detect, monitor and manage this 
group of children in the community.
In many developed countries where there 
are effective social security systems, the 
government has developed teams of social 
work. As notified by the schools, neighbors 
or anyone about the appearance of street 
children living in the streets, or children 
without guardian, these teams will be 
responsible for understanding the children’s 
family and their living environment to 
decide an appropriate measure in a timely 
manner. However, there have not had such 
organizations in Vietnam today. Therefore, 
if a child run away from their family, sooner 
or later they will become the criminal.
The juvenile are not stable in their mind 
and childish in their attitude and they 
always want to define themselves. This can 
easily lead to their uncertain behavior. If 
they are not oriented properly by the adult 
in a timely manner, this can lead them to 
criminals. However, in Vietnam there are

few studies in sectors such as psychotherapy - 
school education, criminology and anthropology,... 
of the juvenile to evaluate the inadaptability 
and the lack of interpersonal skills to deal 
with possible problems of this age group.
