Critically assess the claim that juvenile delinquency was legislated into existence in the nineteenth century. After a few preliminary comments contextualising the claim, I will; 1. Explore the changes in Legislation and Law enforcement agencies in the early to mid-nineteenth century focusing on the ways in which they contributed to the development of the concept of ‘juvenile delinquency’. 2. Consider the arguments of nineteenth century social investigators and reformers and their influence both on the legislative process and on the construction of the concept of juvenile delinquency.

She wanted to document the lives of women and children forced into prostitution by their husbands and families in order to support their families.

In the documentary, “A Class Divided” filmed in 1970, a third grade teacher in Iowa named Jane Elliot did something that I felt was so amazing, during a time period that most might consider risky. She divided her class by the color of their eyes and came up with very clever ways to make them feel discriminated against. Watching the short film, about how she taught her class the lesson of discrimination, which was prompted by the death of Martin Luther King, is just fascinating! At first I was writing down everything I could to be able to reference my notes later, to write this paper. Suddenly I just stopped writing and really got into the lesson as though I was in the classroom with them.
Feeling that she needed to socialise, Cady’s parents enrolled her to North Shore High school. On her first day of North Shore High school, Cady was often left out and she was unfamiliarised with the school’s surroundings and people. On the second day, Cady had become friends with two social outcasts, Janis Ian and Damian.

This is where Janis had stated that they were friends and Cady stayed with them.
The article entitled “Spoiled Rotten,” was written for The New Yorker publication. It described the research of Carolina Izquierdo, an anthropologist at the University of California. The focus of the article was to compare children that functioned independently of their parents with those who did little or nothing for themselves. The researcher spent time with a tribe in South America and described a six-year-old girl that did many things for her tribe although she was not asked to do so. These tasks included cleaning, finding food, and cooking.
Rajin Patel Period 3 1/9/11 Miss Woodward Discrimination In the wake of Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination Miss Elliott thought it would be practical to create a small scale discrimination experiment in her third grade classroom. This exercise would help the children to see the nature of racism and prejudice at an early age. First Miss Elliott divided her all-white classroom into two groups. The two groups were the children with brown eyes and the children with blue eyes. This caused the children to see differences within each other, which would cause them to become exposed to the real world’s problem of racism.

Dorothea Lange was one of the most influential women photographers of her time, 1895- 1965.

A cult grows in America chapter really talked about how the cult is taking over the American society. Society, family and friends pressure women to look a certain way which leads to extreme disorders.
