Description
Are you wondering how to identify the early indicators of criminal behavior in a child? Do you need information on how to prevent the "cradle to prison pipeline?" Preschool to Prison will provide you with answers to questions and issues relating to risk factors and problem behavior in children and teenagers and effective handling of such situations. Children and youth tend to follow a path toward delinquent and criminal behavior, rather than engage in criminal behavior randomly. The path toward the development of juvenile delinquency provides communities, families, and systems the opportunity to intervene and help prevent the onset of antisocial behaviors and the involvement of the justice system (Silverthorn et al., 1999). The best and most effective time to stop the cradle-to-prison pipeline is as close to the beginning of the pipeline as possible, based on the growing body of research. Early intervention not only helps prevent the onset of delinquent behavior, but it also supports the development of youth assets and resilience (Loeber et al., 2003). Preschool to Prison explains the factors that could lead children, teenagers, and adults to crime and offers research-based solutions that help deal with criminal behaviors.
Always remember, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."
