Teenage Curfews are Ineffective Teenage curfews are ineffective because the same way the death penalty doesn’t completely prevent crime curfews won’t prevent a teen from sneaking out and committing a crime either. That means that we’re essentially wasting money on police enforcement to make sure that teenagers are not committing crimes when studies show that if anything the crime rate has went up since more curfews were put into place. “A study by researchers at the Center on Juvenile and Criminal

A curfew is needed for people who stay out late and cause mischief. Towns without a curfew have higher crime rates than those who refuse or do not have a set curfew.

Many towns in New Jersey have declared a new curfew law for teens under 18. Some towns have the curfew for being in your house or someone else’s house by 11 PM unless traveling to and from a job. Many teens think this is unfair and unconstitutional. My personal opinion on this topic is that it will definitely decrease the rate of vandalism on personal property‚ stores‚ etc. First of all‚ with this curfew teens will be in their homes or someone else’s homes by 11 PM which I’m sure

If there is one thing everyone wants to do‚ it’s to keep our kids safe. There are times when safety can be taken too far. The curfew does nothing but unfairly interfere with the lives of teenagers. The main reason some want the curfew to be accepted is because of the paranoia of some parents. More time at night gives teens more time to socialize.

dark? Teen curfews are limiting teens to when they can be out and when teens have to go in. Teen curfews are a bad idea. The first reason for teen curfews being a bad idea is because it forces teens to have a deeper connection with their parents. “The fact is this: teens don’t want to hang with their parents on a weekend night”(Teen curfews at malls are unfair). Some teens have bad relationships with their parents‚ others are more individual people. The second reason of teen curfews being a bad
