"It is time to get tough on the real causes of youth crime. If you can judge a society by the way it treats its children, where does that leave a society which exposes their children to extreme levels of violence in their media, then punishes them when they imitate the behaviour they see going on all around them? Teenagers rarely receive good press. Despite the fact that they are the future of society, they continually shame themselves, inflict their riotous behaviour on others and harm their own bodies with drug and alcohol abuse."
