Is it useful for our country to provide special education for juvenile delinquents?

In recent years, the phenomenon of juvenile delinquency has attracted the attention of all sectors of society. In the newly adopted revised draft of the Law on the Prevention of Juvenile Delinquency, it is proposed to implement graded prevention, refine educational and corrective measures, and clearly divide juveniles' abnormal behavior into three levels, from mild to severe, such as negative behavior, serious negative behavior, and criminal behavior, and separately provide for corresponding intervention and correction measures. Strengthen the prevention, education, and correction of juvenile delinquency to prevent the emergence of serious violent acts.

In the face of these vicious crimes at a young age, many netizens have called for lowering the age of criminal responsibility. The prevention and control of juvenile delinquency is a complex and systematic project, and it is also an indispensable long-term task for parents, schools, and society. Expanding the scope of criminal offenses by simply lowering the age of criminal responsibility is tantamount to putting the role of education and guidance in society to juveniles alone; Empirical studies on crime have also confirmed that this approach is unlikely to achieve the desired results.

In China, there are a large number of left-behind and floating minors, and the problem of lack or improper family guardianship is relatively prominent, which is also an important factor in triggering juvenile delinquency. Therefore, it is particularly necessary to solve the educational correction of these minors through specialized education in specialized schools, and to carry out effective education and probation for them in a timely manner. The only way to maximize the intervention of specialized education in juvenile delinquency is to amend the law to clarify fair, reasonable, and operable admission procedures.

First of all, specialized education is compulsory to a certain extent, involving restrictions on personal freedom, and sending to specialized schools should be decided by the organs with corresponding law enforcement or judicial powers, and it is not appropriate to be examined and approved by the administrative departments for education, which is the basic principle of the rule of law. <>

Is Specialized Education Useful? Of course it works. In terms of preventing juvenile recidivism, the revised draft comprehensively considers the relationship with the relevant provisions of the Prison Law and the Criminal Procedure Law, enriches measures such as education in litigation, correction after procedural diversion, placement and assistance after the completion of community corrections and release from prison, and further clarifies the respective prevention responsibilities of juveniles and their families, schools, judicial organs, communities, etc.

Of course it works. Specialized education can choose suitable teaching materials according to their characteristics. Some courses that are not available in ordinary schools will be added to help them correct their behavior.

I do not believe that the program of educating minors in our country is not a disguised protection of criminals. The root cause of juvenile delinquency is that he has psychological problems, is in a bad environment or state in which he was growing up, and therefore resentment or other bad thoughts have accumulated in his heart, and his parents and teachers have not given him care or justice. Counseling is very likely to lead to psychological distortions in children.

The educational objectives of the prevention of juvenile delinquency are as follows:

1. Strengthen minors' concept of the rule of law;

2. Make minors understand the harm caused by criminal acts to individuals, families, and society, and the legal responsibility that should be borne for illegal and criminal acts;

How can society help juvenile offenders?

1.Helping and educating delinquent minors is the common responsibility of the whole society. As far as legal aid is concerned, when handling juvenile criminal legal aid cases, in addition to requiring the personnel undertaking the case to be familiar with the relevant laws and do a good job in handling the case, it is also necessary to have a high sense of social responsibility.

and care for minors. While defending juveniles in accordance with the law, it is necessary to find out the correct points of probation on the basis of the subjective and objective reasons for their crimes, and to do a good job of education in the legal system.

While further strengthening cooperation between legal aid institutions and the public security, procuratorial organs, and courts, it is also necessary to strengthen social ties and mobilize all sectors of society to join in the ranks of educating and rescuing minor aid recipients.

2.Educational measures should be aimed at both "people" and "the environment". Juvenile delinquency is largely a product of the environment.

Based on the core concept of social work of "people in context", education and correction measures also need to simultaneously carry out work on environmental factors such as family, school, and peers in the minors' lives, and support minors to complete the socialization process through environmental improvement. For example, on the concept of education.

Parents or other guardians who deviate from the method should carry out voluntary or even compulsory parenting education, support minors to get rid of their previous bad peer groups, and even take them away from bad family environments. Juveniles who have lost their footing should be actively encouraged, so that they can correct their mistakes, get out of the psychological shadow of crime, and take a good path in life. In the long run, juvenile criminal legal aid should be carried out as a comprehensive social management work.

3.Juvenile delinquency is a complex social problem.

How to manage it scientifically and effectively is also a recognized worldwide problem. A large number of studies have shown that simply imposing retributive punishment on juvenile delinquents, or even applying adult incarceration measures entirely, will only further block their normal socialization process, push them to the opposite side of society, and cause greater harm to society in the future. Minors are not physically and mentally healthy and are at a critical stage of transition to adulthood.

They are often more likely to reintegrate into society than adults. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a policy for dealing with juveniles who have committed crimes, with the main purpose of education and correction.

First of all, it is necessary to take minors away from the unfavorable social environment, and also give full play to the special role of family prevention, and to protect minors in accordance with national laws and regulations. Hu Fang.

In society, minors will be guided to form correct values, world outlook, and outlook on life, adhere to education-oriented, promote the all-round development of minors, effectively prevent juvenile delinquency, and give full play to the role of school education.

Management should be strengthened, and minor children should be correctly guided, so that they can have a certain understanding of the law and establish a correct three views.
