Fetal Alcohol Syndrome: Discussion in Relation to the Criminal Justice System
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing fetal alcohol syndrome, its incidence, cost to society and relation in the criminal justice system. Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS), Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE), Alcohol-Related Neurodevelopmental Disorders (ARND), Alcohol-Related Birth Defects (ARBD) and alcohol-exposed Static Encephalopathy (SE) are all terms for the defect which occurs to a child when his or her mother drinks alcohol during pregnancy. It is estimated that 1 in every 10 children born have some form of this disorder which can result in mild learning disabilities to major mental, physical and developmental disorders. Children with an alcohol related disorder may or may not have physical defects and because of this most go undetected at birth. Youths with FAS exhibit impulsive and anti-social behavior, lower IQs, attention deficit, emotional instability, impairment in judgment and little awareness or consequences of their behavior among many other factors; all of which can lead them into criminal behavior. As a result, over 55% of youths and adults with FAS have spent time in a criminal facility; a fact which many critics within the legal system state may go against some of the fundamental principles of the legal system in which people must understand the rules in society and understand that the rules must be obeyed. From another legal aspect, legal critics also argue that pregnant women who drink could be considered as committing child abuse; an argument which has led some states to impose involuntary treatment and confinement of drinking women during the course of a pregnancy in order to protect the unborn child.

Group Homes and Juvenile Delinquency
[ send me this essay ]
A 30 page overview of the problems confronting us in regard to effectively addressing the growing problem of juvenile delinquency. While many interventions have been attempted in addressing this problem, no one solution has been identified. Group homes do offer a potential solution. The past record of group homes, however, is not that complimentary as to their effectiveness. Part of this record lies in the fact that insufficient records have been maintained which can be used as a source for intensive research targeting the delineation of successes verses failures. By reviewing the literature on the various interventions which have proven successful, however, we can potentially redesign the group home environment so that it is more successful in addressing the problem of juvenile delinquency.
