"The Commissioner for Children, Sonia Camilleri, feels society is failing young people with antisocial behaviour and it is crucial for all professionals concerned to come together to set up a specialised programme to steer them clear from a life of crime.
'We have hundreds of young people in schools who are at risk of a 'criminal career' and we need to focus more energy and resources on these problems,' she pointed out.
Mrs Camilleri cited as an example the lack of counselling services in schools and the great need for more psychologists and family therapists to guide these young people."
