Synopsis

This book examines how the juvenile court system in the United States has evolved over time, and the results of this evolution. The author argues that the juvenile court, as it currently functions with a focus on social reform and rehabilitation rather than legal consequences, is an unnecessary and potentially unfair institution. The author suggests that the present functions of the juvenile court should be taken over by the school system and domestic relations courts. This would allow the juvenile court to focus on its original purpose of protecting children and families from abuse and neglect, and would ensure that children are not subjected to criminal prosecution for minor offenses. The author contends that this shift would allow for a more just and effective juvenile justice system. By providing a unique perspective on the history and future of juvenile courts, this book makes an important contribution to the ongoing debate about how to best serve the needs of children and families in the justice system.
