Curfews are a subject that is widely discussed on if they should or should not be enforced most of the people lean to enforce curfews in an effort to cut crimes that are happening late at night. Most parents would agree that teen curfew is effective in reducing the risk of teens getting into trouble. But I believe that teens shouldn’t have a curfew.

I am writing to voice my opinion on the introduction of legislation to impose a 7pm curfew for children under the age of 16. I strongly oppose this legislation because of freedom for children‚ children may have a reason and also it is the parent’s choice. I believe children should have a choice to be free and putting the away after 7pm is taking away from their freedom. The introduction of the curfew will make the children feel neglected and this may cause them to rebel. In my opinion I believe

Citywide Curfew Yes the citywide curfew should be changed for various reasons. I think that there shouldn’t be a curfew on weekends. There would be less crime and there would be fewer teens in juvenile.
