My position on this I believe could impact the paper. I think that if you are really passionate about something you could possibly not see the other side of the topic. You have to come at a topic that you have a lot of emotion about and be open to learning about the other side. The papers scope and majors sections will be first to look into how a child is diagnosed with a mental disorder. I would check and see what drugs are typically described to a child.
Research Question: How effective is Cognitive Behaviour Therapy in treating adolescents/young adults who engage in self-harm? (put in importance of evidence based practice) “Risk of suicide attempt, suicidal ideation and deliberate self-harm is high among young people” (Robinson et al, 2011:3). Thus the objective of this assignment is to determine the validity of the chosen quantitative study that considers the effectiveness of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (here in after referred to as CBT) in the treatment of self-harm among adolescents/young people. During my previous PLO I worked within mental health. Numerous professionals within the team are trained in CBT, and use CBT to treat a wide range of issues including self-harm; this is where my interest derives.
Rosemary Johnson CJA/374 Criminal Procedure Instructor Glenda Rohrbach April 13, 2013 According to the Juvenile Justice Bulletin, past research explains there are common reasons for juvenile delinquency behavior. These factors could include a birth trauma, child abuse and neglect, poor parenting skills, lack of age-appropriate discipline, mental health issues, unduly peer influences, bad housing conditions, dysfunctional family life, and living in a high-crime neighborhood. These research studies are hoping to improve juvenile delinquency violence and juvenile delinquency drug use. These studies demonstrate that family environment, poor school associations, bad peer pressures, and what
The initial consultation can be a very powerful tool for both the client and the hypnotherapist (Allen P Roger 2004). First impressions will be formed during the initial conversation between the client and the hypnotherapist. It is where the client can tell the hypnotherapist about themselves and can also learn about the hypnotherapist therefore leading the client to decide whether hypnotherapy is the right cause of action for them. Potential clients may be hesitant, nervous, and or sceptical about the idea of hypnosis (Allen P Roger 2004). They may have certain preconceptions of hypnotism from how it is often portrayed in the media and for entertainment purposes etc and so the initial consultation enables the therapist to walk the client through the processes involved in hypnotherapy and to explain how it can help the client and hopefully alleviate any fears that the client may have so that the client feels comfortable and safe (Allen P Roger 2004)..
Running head: THE SOCIAL ILLNESS OF METHAMPHETAMINE The Social Illness of Methamphetamine Abuse Abstract This paper discusses the causes and consequences of Methamphetamine abuse, and its affect on society. Presented is an overview of Methamphetamine dependency and a dialogue of three theoretical perspectives relating human development and drug addiction. The birth of Methamphetamine abuse has prompted federal and state governments to develop statutes, regulations, and policy changes to deal with this societal illness. Research of published literature and personal communication examines three legislative policies relevant to the misuse of this drug. A comparison of the policy models used in the development and implementation of these federal acts addresses the government's response to this public disease.
Juvenile Justice: Understanding Juvenile’s and the Probation Process When we are young and learning the rules of life, it can be difficult for some to conform to the rules that are put in front of them. For some, following the rules of the family as well as the law comes naturally and is easily done. Others struggle with the boundaries put in place and break not only the family and household rules, but legal rules as well. These individuals end up in the justice system and often continue to spend the rest of their life in and out of correctional treatment programs and facilities in an effort to learn what is necessary to follow the rules set for society. Most adults that commit crimes began their life of crime when they were young.
Brittney Durr Mr. Bruse 5th period Juvenile Justice Essay I think yes and no about trying teens as adults. In my honest opinion, about trying teens as an adult should all depend on the crime, how old the kid is and in certain cases should check out backgrounds and family problems and how their childhood was and how it is going on right now because in some cases it can make a big difference. Sometimes kids get mixed up in the wrong crowed because of problems at home and those problems have been building up and causing some kids to be emotionally destroyed and which that could and have lead the childern to go down the wrong path, so what do you do when all those emotions come out in anger or wrose, do you get the kid the help he needs like getting him out of the bad invierment he/she is in or do you just give a court date and have the judge only look at him/her and that one crime and send them to prison for the rest of there lifes with no chance of prolly. To me i would have to look at the case and check the teens inverioment out just to see what is going on see what he does for his/her free time i would do anything to try and see if this child really ment to do what they did or if they did just out of anger and all that emtional hurt and much more and i
According to "Juvenile Court Procedure" (2012), "After committing an offense, juveniles are detained rather than arrested. Next, a petition is drawn up which outlines the jurisdiction authority of the juvenile court over the offense and detained individuals, gives notice for the reason for the court appearance, serves as notice to the minor's family, and also is the official charging document"(para 1). Moreover, juvenile offender cases are heard in family courts unlike adult cases that are heard in criminal court. In response, to all the information I provided, my opinion is that the juvenile process should definitely differ from the adult process. I think that juveniles should not receive a harsh of a process as adults because he or she are still kids themselves.
Restorative justice comes in a variety of applications such as mediation panels, community service, circles, and so on. The type of program used by the juvenile court will depend on the type of restorative justice program offered in their geographical area. It is important, however, to understand all of the various restorative justice applications because this philosophy is quickly being adapted in jurisdictions across the United States. Disposition is a phase of delinquency proceeding similar to "sentencing" phase of adult trial. The judge must consider alternative, innovative, and individualized sentences rather than imposing standard sentences.
As far as the educational systems within the juvenile justice system there also is a lack of funding to appropriately educate the offenders. Many of the offenders are drop outs needing the basic fundamental educational tools. With the economy and lack of funding, minimal supplies, man hours for teaching staff and curriculum are appearing to be viewed as sub-standard, and below the bare
