Please leave at least three comments. One is your original contribution. And two comments are your replies to your classmates. Deadline: Monday, November 27th, 11:59 pm.
There are various reasons why juveniles re-enter the justice system in adulthood, such as limited access to education, lack of support systems, exposure to criminal influences, and underlying social or economic challenges can contribute to this cycle/introduction into the justice system. For young juveniles involved in the system, it often reinforces negative behaviors, affects their self-esteem, and can limit future opportunities due to “stigma”.
Hey Veyla, I like how you pointed out that the stigma from being in the justice system can affect how these young people feel about themselves and limit their chances in the future. Your recognition of this adds an important part to the conversation, showing that it’s not just about the problems right now but also about the long-lasting impact on their lives.
I agree that lack of support and limited access to education makes the person get involved in adulthood and re-enter. Racism in the legal and health systems, the criminalization of mental illness, and the lack of access to mental health care. The families of those incarcerated are also impacted.
Hello Veyla,
I agree with your discussion post. Limited access to education is a significant reason for juveniles re-entering the criminal justice system. Organizations understand the disparities through data and research, and much outreach is implemented for those juveniles needing positive influences. Society views breaking the law as deviant behavior; the offense, at times, doesn’t matter. “You broke the law; you’re a criminal.” This may cause the individuals low self-esteem due to how society views them. If criminal justice looks to more restorative systems, we can see a halt to the school-to-prison pipeline.
Hey veyla, I definitely agree with you, the juvenile system can create negative behaviors which later in life can hurt them and put them on the wrong path
Hii Veyla,
I value your perceptive examination of the elements that lead to adolescents returning to the legal system as adults. Young people encounter a variety of difficult obstacles that contribute to their repeated participation in the legal system. These challenges include inadequate access to education, a lack of support systems, exposure to criminal influences, and underlying social or economic issues. Your observation that the “stigma” attached to engagement in juvenile court hurts one’s self-worth and prospects for the future is especially striking. It emphasizes the necessity of a more thorough and restorative strategy in the juvenile justice system, one that addresses the underlying socioeconomic causes of juvenile delinquency in addition to the immediate legal repercussions. A comprehensive approach that offers young people with educational and supportive resources to empower them and break the harmful tendencies that frequently continue into adulthood is necessary to break this cycle.
I completely agree treating someone like an outsider based off their pasting, can affect there minds am make them go back to old habits.
The school-to-prison pipeline, as highlighted in the video, underscores a disturbing trend where disciplinary actions in schools disproportionately impact minority students, particularly black and brown children. The reliance on punitive measures, such as handcuffing and involving law enforcement for minor infractions, not only fails to address the root causes of behavioral issues but also sets in motion a destructive cycle. This cycle, marked by increased likelihood of juvenile justice system involvement, subsequently raises the probability of later entry into the adult criminal justice system. The impact is not only a disruption of educational opportunities but also a reinforcement of negative perceptions and mistrust among affected youth.
Dear Jamal, I like how you stated that handcuffing and involving law enforcement fails to address the root causes of behavioral issues. It is so true that this increased juvenile justice system involvement. The punishment meted out to African American students was disproportionate as compared to their white and Latino counterparts. Additionally, suspensions and expulsions of children with emotional disorders were disproportionate.
Hi Jamal,
I agree with your statement that minority students especially Black and Brown children are disproportionately affected by the school-to-prison pipeline. In addition to being ineffectual in addressing the underlying causes of behavioral issues, an over-reliance on punitive measures like handcuffing and involving law enforcement for minor infractions also starts a harmful cycle that raises the possibility of involvement with the juvenile justice system and, ultimately, entry into the adult criminal justice system. In addition to interfering with educational possibilities, this cycle feeds mistrust and unfavorable opinions among the impacted young. Schools often lack the resources to provide adequate support services for students with mental health or behavioral issues. How can youth be protected? I think we need to advocate for the youth and understand how we can improve the system even in small steps. The inequalities need to be addressed as well.
Hello Jamal, I absolutely agree with your response. I like how you incorporated the way more minorities are the ones who are arrested. “The impact is not only a disruption of educational opportunities but also a reinforcement of negative perceptions and mistrust among affected youth.” This is one hundred percent a fact.
I agree Jamal, Schools should focus on communication and rehabilitation with troubled students rather than using discipline and harsh punishments.
Hey Jamal, I agree with your statement , the use of law enforcement for just minor infractions is a stretch for the black and brown youth , it can just cause more harm and behavioral problems for the child in the end.
Hey Jamal, awareness the cycle of juvenile justice system involvement and its consequences for eventual entry into the adult criminal justice system requires an awareness of the school-to-prison pipeline, as you have noted. Minority pupils are disproportionately affected, particularly Black and Brown kids, which draws attention to the structural problems that are deeply embedded in our educational and disciplinary systems. A harmful cycle is maintained when punitive measures are used in place of treating behavioral disorders at their source. I wholeheartedly concur that the effects extend beyond merely interfering with educational prospects; among the young people affected, it also fosters mistrust and unfavorable opinions. Promoting changes to our educational system, placing a strong emphasis on restorative justice procedures, and making sure that disciplinary actions are just, appropriate, and directed toward resolving the underlying problems rather than continuing down a path that leads to the juvenile justice system are all necessary to end this cycle. We can attempt to sever the connection between disciplinary actions taken at school and subsequent engagement in the criminal justice system by creating an atmosphere that recognizes and supports the variety of needs of children.
Many young people who come into contact with the juvenile justice system have struggled academically, been disengaged from their education, or faced disciplinary issues at school. Since these young people’s academic results are typically worse than those of their peers who do not interact with the system, academic interventions could be a useful strategy for helping young people who run the risk of becoming involved in the juvenile justice system. Students of color are disproportionately affected by the history of systemic racism, discrimination, economic inequality, and poverty, especially young Black and Latino males. These factors also contribute to the marginalization of targeted students and their early entrapment in the school-to-prison pipeline.
Hello Alyssa, I like what you said about what we can do to help better the school system. “academic interventions could be a useful strategy for helping young people who run the risk of becoming involved in the juvenile justice system” I believe doing so can encourage students to build new skills and become more confident. Not only that they will also be more welcomed and feel like they are getting help.
There are many reasons why juvenile offenders become repeat offenders within adulthood but I believe one of the biggest reasons is being failed by the community and the justice system! There should be more access to rehabilitation for juvenile offenders when released. Follow up systems and programs. Another huge factor is lack of resources to help the youth obtain education. Families are not always doing the right by young adult, they lack support, love, and necessities. For example, I know someone who became an offender young and became repeated offender trying to feed his siblings while his mother did whatever she wanted in the streets so he was arrested on a series of theft charges. This is a series of cause and affect and the system does not see that they only see the crime! Not only education but lack of resources, young adult
don’t feel comfortable to speak because the system doesn’t help. They’ll toss a child in a the system in a heart beat now they getting beat on or sexually assaulted in group homes. It’s more to removing a child from a home. Workers make it seem “simple” but sometimes removal makes a child life worse. Then as an adult all they know is a life of hurt, neglect, and trouble a become a product of their environment. As well as students of color , color depends on how you’re treated by law enforcement and more so sometimes kids act off anger! In addition to that, a lot of adult don’t believe in mental health and helping a child in that situation so a child acts out a there actions are penalized.
Hi Tatianna,
I definitely agree with your statement a lack of support, resources, and rehabilitation can significantly contribute to juvenile offenders becoming repeat offenders in adulthood. The factors you mentioned, such as limited access to education, dysfunctional family environments, and the failure of the justice system to address underlying issues, all play a role in creating a cycle of crime and disadvantage. The case you described of a young person committing theft to support their siblings highlights the desperation and lack of options that many juvenile offenders face. When basic necessities like food and shelter are at stake, resorting to crime may seem like the only way to survive. This underscores the importance of providing comprehensive support to these young individuals, not just focusing on punishment. The issue of race and discrimination in the justice system is also a critical factor. Studies have shown that Black and brown youth are disproportionately represented in the juvenile justice system, often for minor offenses. This differential treatment can create a sense of injustice and alienation, further hindering their chances of success in society. I had family members majority of them being men who felt the same need to provide for the family at a young age but had to face the consequences as well. It is scary those become the options. We also need to shift the focus from punishment to rehabilitation. Instead of simply locking up young offenders, we should provide them with the tools and support they need to make positive changes in their lives. This includes mental health services, substance abuse treatment, and job training programs.
I wanted add on and say that most people think just because someone is getting older, they are getting wiser and will make smarter decisions but people may be dealing with unsolved childhood trauma that will not go away unless treated.
Hello tatiana, I also mentioned in my response how by the youth having the right resources and support it can go a long way. The system doesn’t pay attention to the needs of the youth. Access to more programs can help prevent the youth from going down the wrong route as a adult.
I agree and also think we need to be more invested into helping people who need it in order to prevent future crimes or bad behaviors from happening.
School is the first experience some students face with disciplinary figures. This discipline can be applied to school staff and even the school security staff. From listening to the video in this module and reviewing similar videos, I realize the disparities between the punishments given to black and white students are incredibly high. Take one student, for example, a black student who is in a verbal dispute with their teacher; the teacher views this student as out of line because they’re talking back to authority. The teacher then may resort to different measures to ensure this student stays in their “place.” This includes the teacher calling the principal’s office or having a school security office take matters into their own hands. Many security guards are former law enforcement agents; they have particular training that doesn’t correlate well with public schools. This is why you see videos of students being violently taken away from their classrooms. This experience can harm students who do not have the support or foundation from their school or even their parents. This student could feel that the system isn’t in place to protect them, and this is often the case. Throughout life and when they reach adulthood, they have a disdain for authority, and anyone they feel is attacking them personally. I think once you put a juvenile in a situation that robs them of their childhood and makes them grow up fast, it has a negative effect down the road in their life.
I think it is possible for this not to be the case or for disciplinary actions like suspension as a last resort. The idea of restorative justice is a great way to curb the school-to-prison pipeline. Most of the time, a student misbehaves in class and just cries for help. They could be experiencing something in their personal lives but cannot articulate what is happening to them. This also does not give students labels they may receive for misbehaving in class. If school resources were equally given to all public schools, many of these situations would not happen. I also believe in connecting with the students on a deeper level than just teacher and student.
Hi Khalid, The reflections on the disciplinary experiences of students in the educational system, particularly the disproportionate impact on black students, underscore a pressing need for reform. Instances where a verbal dispute leads to escalated measures, involving not only teachers but also security staff with law enforcement backgrounds, highlight systemic issues. These situations, often resulting in forceful removals, can have profound and lasting effects on students, especially those lacking support systems. The recognition that such experiences can instill a disdain for authority and hinder personal growth underscores the urgency for change. The proposal of restorative justice as an alternative to suspension offers a promising solution, acknowledging that students often misbehave as a cry for help. This approach avoids stigmatizing labels and addresses underlying personal struggles. Equitable distribution of school resources and fostering deeper connections between educators and students are integral to preventing such situations. It’s time to prioritize a supportive and empathetic educational environment that promotes understanding rather than perpetuating the school-to-prison pipeline.
A significant number of adolescents interacting with the juvenile justice system are faced with academic challenges, disengagement from education, or disciplinary issues in school. As a result, their academic performance is typically subpar compared to their peers who do not have interactions with the juvenile justice system. Implementing academic interventions could prove beneficial in helping at-risk young individuals, particularly those who face the prospect of involvement in the juvenile justice system. Students of color, particularly young Black and Latino males, are disproportionately impacted by systemic racism, discrimination, economic inequality, and poverty. These factors further contribute to the marginalization of targeted students and their early involvement in the school-to-prison pipeline.
Hi Everyone,
Juveniles who become involved in the juvenile justice system are more likely to be involved again in adulthood for a number of reasons. Once a juvenile is labeled as a delinquent, they may find it difficult to escape this label, even if they stop offending. This stigma can make it difficult to get a job, go to school, or find housing, which can increase the risk of repeating the offense. Juveniles who are involved in the justice system are more likely to associate with other juveniles who are also involved in the system. Juveniles in the justice system often lack access to the resources they need to succeed, such as education, mental health treatment, and substance abuse treatment. This can make it difficult for them to break the cycle of offending. I think it will help if the problem previously listed is addressed to help children instead of making them into another statistic. Maybe children of color need to not be punished for petty things and if a crime is committed that is not a serious offense need to be court-ordered for community services or mental services like their white peers who get less hard sentences. It is sad to make children into criminals at a young age and they can not trust the people that supposed to protect them.
Research shows us that when young people get involved with the law or juvenile justice system, they’re more likely to stay involved as adults. This is called the “school-to-prison pipeline,” where certain schools contribute to students ending up in the juvenile justice system. Some schools have strict rules that can lead to suspension, and police in schools can also contribute to this problem. Factors like poverty and racial disparities play a role, too. For young people, getting involved in criminal life can lead to labeling, affecting their self-esteem and mental health . It can also mean facing harsh consequences for small or minor offenses, treating them like serious crimes. To change this, it’s important to provide support programs and advocate for changes in policies to address inequalities in the faulty system. This way, we can focus on helping young people succeed and do well instead of pushing them into a cycle of repeated involvement in criminal activities and the justice system.
Hey Sam I completely agree with you instead of treating them wrong based off their past it is important to keep them going to a correct path by helping them and supporting them.
I believe that it all starts from home the way we raise our kids and how the school system disciplines our peers/children. We are raised and labeled throughout our lives as bad kid or a good kid. Reading and watching the videos in this unit I can conclude once you have a label you face many obstacles if you are arrested and labeled a felon you will have trouble finding many job opportunities. As you go on with life you realize you are limited to a successful path due to the label you have. You also start to lose hope and fall back into the prison system. And especially for young juveniles, they need guidance and encouragement, not harsh punishment. Yes, I believe this cycle can be broken, By embedding more helpful resources for juveniles we can give them an opportunity to build trust and bond with the school system. An emotional attachment to a teacher can actually impact students in many ways. In my experience, I’ve had friends who were labeled thugs gang members, and felons, but I saw different and some of my teachers did as well. One of my best friends was killed in a shooting, He was the nicest respectful person he built a bond with the school staff they encouraged him to do things that would elevate him for the better and he was on that path changing his ways, he was becoming a different person but in a good way. He was trying to become a CNA with the help of family he was aiming for another chapter in life, but he was murdered for a past altercation. The school system needs to be more open and comprehend our lives some kids have it hard and the school systems fails to see that.
I agree with the statement about labeling. When you call someone something fir a certain tie, they become that title and own up to it. If two kids are doing badly at school and one of them is always getting beat and yelled at for being dumb at home, he will keep failing as opposed to the kid who gets support and tutoring and positive comments, he will improve from bring motivated.
Hello Andi, I agree with your statement. The way a child’s upbringing is plays a role in how they will become. By a child having the right support around them it can go a long way.
I can answer this from personal experience. I have a family member who was exposed to a taste of the school prison pipeline. He wasn’t sent to prison but he went through a traumatic process as he was only in 5th grade. He and his friends were making jokes and his friend said something considered “dark humor”. A classmate overheard and told the teacher. His friends all blamed my family member even though he didn’t say the joke. The school took him into the office where he was faced with officers from a counter-terrorism unit and EMTs to do a psych eval. Mind you we are Muslim which without a doubt played a part in everyone blaming him and when he knows he didn’t make that joke why did he go through that? He now grew up with a mindset where he couldn’t trust the school system because of what they did to him and how they failed him. This impact would traumatize kids and will change their behavior toward others and their social life. School systems should focus and communication and rehabilitation rather than discipline.
I believe that when a juvenile becomes involved in the juvenile justice system, he or she is more likely to be involved again in adulthood because they already have on their record a crime they have commited. It can be hard for adults to get a good job after already having a criminal record. I think the effect this has on young juveniles who become involved in the system is them thinking they already have this negative label on them and a way to break this cycle is by having the right support. Support from families and the juvenile justice system can go a long way for the youth that has been incarcerated. Young juveniles should be able to have access to conseling and education while in the juvenile justice system.
Research suggests that when a juvenile becomes entangled in the juvenile justice system, the likelihood of subsequent involvement in adulthood increases. This phenomenon is often attributed to a combination of stigmatization and labeling, limited opportunities for rehabilitation, environmental factors, and the formation of criminal networks. The effect on young juveniles is profound, as involvement in the justice system can perpetuate a cycle of criminal behavior, hinder personal development, and restrict access to education and employment opportunities. The negative impact extends to families and communities. Breaking this cycle necessitates reformative juvenile justice policies, community-based programs addressing root causes, educational and employment opportunities, restorative justice practices, and a comprehensive approach to systemic issues. The video explores how the School-to-Prison Pipeline exacerbates this cycle by illustrating how educational policies and practices can contribute to the unnecessary criminalization of young individuals, emphasizing the importance of addressing issues at the intersection of education and juvenile justice for effective intervention and prevention.
Juveniles who fall victim to the juvenile system are likely to become repeat offenders because of their peers and living environment. I believe once a kid reaches high school, their social group and influence will determine their future. Joining gangs, dating, partying, experimenting with alcohol and drugs, and embracing their freedom is where their life begin to change. For example, most teens begin smoking marijuana in their high school years. They’re usually introduced to it by a friend who has older relatives or friends who influenced them to do so. Depending on their upbringing or parental guidance, they should be aware that marijuana use is considered a bad choice. Strict parents or parents who are more involved in their kids’ lives are certain to make sure they provide them with a level of maturity to make better decisions.
The reason black and brown youth are most likely to become juvenile defenders is because of the cultural influence that hasn’t changed for the vast majority. In these urban communities where growing up in housing projects and apartment complexes, experiencing crime or having the simple understanding that you live in a “bad neighborhood”, some people will identify with that. Without a doubt, they’re a product of their environment, but there are two roads you can take that’ll affect your future. It’s evident that teens develop their character through social, media, and cultural influence. If their favorite rapper, who most likely is from their neighborhood, speaks about being in a gang or selling drugs, there will be those who think that’s the cool thing to do. That’s just 1 person from that specific neighborhood, now conceptualize how many other teens are thinking the same exact way. And if they get into a life of crime, petty charges, and misdemeanors aren’t serious enough for the youth to understand the trouble they’re getting into. They can go through the system a handful of times, get probation, or house arrest, and so on, but the familiarity of being through the system will eventually cause them to raise the stakes. In which weapons and guns are involved, and their restraint for following social norms is at risk. They won’t walk away from fights, they won’t consider the risk of losing their life, and they won’t be concerned with the families they hurt.
Hello Courtney, I agree with you completely. Once kids enter high school I believe that who they are and who they become is tremendously affected by who they surround themselves with. In high school there is a lot of pressure on a newly young adult to know what they want to do and who they’d like to be in a few years and due to the pressure they may find easy ways to “relax” such as drinking, smoking, or partying.
When a juvenile ends up in the juvenile justice system, they may end up again in adulthood because when as an adolescent they may be labeled as a criminal or delinquent , it may cause them to identify themselves in that way and make them think that is who they truly are. The affect I think this has on young juveniles is that it may cause them to feel a sense of hopelessness and also gives them limited opportunity. I believe this cycle can be broken if the child has a great mentor or parent by their side and if a child is helped with other resourced rather than the juvenile justice system.
Multiple factors increase the risk of a juvenile involved in the juvenile justice system continuing to be involved as an adult. The stigmatization and labeling that frequently coincide with a juvenile’s admission into the system is one important component. Having a criminal record can lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy, causing someone’s identity to be shaped and their behavior to be influenced in ways that conform to social norms. Moreover, the adolescent’s view of authority, self-worth, and prospects can be significantly impacted by their experiences in the juvenile justice system, including interactions with law enforcement, incarceration, and court procedures. A cycle of reoffending can frequently be exacerbated by the juvenile justice system’s inability to provide adequate rehabilitation and support programs, which misses the underlying reasons for delinquent conduct.
When young juveniles enter the system, this cycle may have negative consequences for them. The stigma attached to a criminal record might prevent someone from pursuing higher education or finding work, which feeds dissatisfaction and despondency. Inadequate assistance and interventions in their early years can impede personal growth and increase the likelihood that they will engage in criminal activity in the future. It is possible to break this cycle, though. Putting in place thorough, research-based rehabilitation programs inside the juvenile justice system that target the root causes of misbehavior can be a critical first step. Community-based programs that offer job training, mentorship, and educational support can also be alternatives and have beneficial impacts. We can break the cycle of juvenile delinquency and enable these young people to grow up to be productive, law-abiding adults by funding early intervention, rehabilitation, and community support.
I feel like going to juvenile detention can have impact on you even as the child grows up because it the behaviors and lifestyle can rub off on them. They weren’t raised in a good environment and peoples environments can affect their lives because that’s what they are use to. It can something that’s powerful and can influences these young children to make more bad decisions later on in life, those children don’t have any good role models or good environments if half of their childhood is them being in jail. I feel like there is something that can break this cycle maybe like not putting children in jail for such a long time or maybe find other punishments then putting them in jail because they are kids and shouldn’t be in situations like that.
Hey Sade, I agree with you, that type of lifestyle and behavior can easily influence a kid who knows no better.
Research indicates that when a juvenile becomes involved in the juvenile justice system, he or she is more likely to be involved again in adulthood. Why do you think this is the case? What effect do you think this has on young juveniles who become involved in the system? Do you think anything can break this cycle?
Research indicates that when a juvenile becomes involved in the juvenile justice system they are more likely to be involved again in adulthood. This is the case because that is what they grew up to be accustomed to. If all you are around is crime, more than likely you will be involved in it in some form of it. The effects it has on young juveniles who become involved in the system is corruption to the mind. Being so young, and having to deal with such hardships, can never be good in any way. They grow up to be like the people they grew to idolize in the streets. There is a couple of things can break this cycle. One of those things is a program, we can set up a program where kids of all ages can join, like a kips bay. Another thing that can break the cycle is closing the gap on the financial inequality.
Hello Antonio, I agree with everything you said, especially about financial inequality and how closing that gap can lead to a decrease in crime from younger people. I would like to add on that a lot of the time, because of financial issues a lot of people turn to criminal or illegal activities because sometimes it’s a way for them to cope with what’s going on. For example, drug dealing or stealing, can occur due to lack of funds and needing money for basic necessities.
I think that when a juvenile becomes involved in the juvenile justice system, they’re more likely to be involved again in adulthood because of what they might have learned or not learned when they got the consequences to whatever they did. For example, if a child was caught stealing from a store such as sephora or target and they got caught and arrested that’s on their record and they are taken to a police station. The parents would get involved and try their best to prevent this from happening but, say that this happened with friends. A parent can’t force their kids to stop being friends with other people even if they’re a bad influence. If a juvenile hangs out with the wrong crowd and is surrounded by bad habits, there isn’t much that can be done because young adults can be very stubborn a lot of the time. A person under 16, in some states, in the system won’t have any grave consequences if they are caught and in a way that might give them the idea that because they got away with it before, they can get away with it whenever they want.
When it comes to juveniles becoming involved with crime later in their life after already being in the jury system, I think the reason comes down to their decision making, their mental well being and who is around them. I think that even as they get older, they still might be dealing with trauma from when they were a kid that may have never been solved. Examples might include being born with a condition or going through dramatic events that leave you with trauma. When someone is already committing crimes at a young age, they will become used to it and feel as if its normal so it is easy to predict that they may see it the same way in the future. I think what causes juveniles to act out is mostly due to their parents not keeping a close enough eye on them or not raising them right and who they call friends. If a kid has friends that are part of a gang or maybe are involved with crime, then the kid will start to pick up on these behaviors and copy them since it is very easy to follow examples made by friends. And also, if a parent Is unworthy of raising a kid and does not take actions against their kids when they act out, the kid will have no reason to stop until its too late.
The recurrent involvement of juveniles in the justice system is a complex issue with multifaceted causes. One significant factor is the stigmatization and labeling that occurs when a young person enters the system, potentially reinforcing a self-fulfilling prophecy of criminal identity. The limited opportunities for education, employment, and personal development within the system can further exacerbate the problem. For young juveniles, this cycle has profound effects, hindering their ability to break free from a trajectory toward criminality and limiting future prospects. However, breaking this cycle requires systemic changes. Rehabilitation-focused juvenile justice practices, community support initiatives, improved educational opportunities, and policy reforms are essential components in addressing the root causes of juvenile delinquency. The School-to-Prison Pipeline, as discussed in the provided video, underscores the systemic issues contributing to this cycle, emphasizing the importance of reevaluating education and disciplinary practices to prevent the unnecessary criminalization of youth.
Juveniles re-enter the just e system because they lack support from family, friends, the school, etc. Being judge by your past and the only thing that people see is your juvenile record, they’ll treat you different from others, won’t give you the same opportunity, give you limited access to education. This will eventually affect their minds and already believe they won’t be nothing in life and they have nothing to lose so they go back to the same old habits.
