Teen Curfew In San Diego County, and in many other counties across the country, teenagers are forced to be indoors after ten p. m. Should there be a teen curfew This idea is ridiculous. There is no legitimate reason for there to bea curfew.
The proponents of a teen curfew say that a curfew would bring the crime rate down during those hours that teenagers are not allowed to been the street. This statement is false. The amount of crimes committed during the hours of curfew has basically stayed the same since the curfew law has been enforced in mid-1994. Just because teens are out at a certain time of night does not mean that they are causing trouble. They might be out talking to a friend, or coming home from a late sporting event, not creating anarchy.
If somebody wants to commit a crime they are going to do it no matter what time it is. A curfew law is not going to stop anyone, they are going to break the law anyway. The statistics show that enforcing curfew does not bring the crime rate down significantly during the curfew hours. It should not be in the hands of the police officers to tell parents when their son or daughter has to be inside, that should be the parents responsibility. Parents should be the ones to make decisions about how to raise their children, and to decide whether their honor student or responsible teenager has earned the right to stay out late. Police officers should be looking for real crimes, not for teenagers violating their curfew.

They should not be spending their time arresting young adults for causing no trouble while a murder may be going on down the street. What are the priorities of our law-makers Teen curfew is direct discrimination towards young adults. This law brands all teenagers a criminals. Adults commit many more crimes than teenagers. Should there be a curfew for adults Adults try to teach adolescents to be responsible, when they are not allowed to prove that they are responsible. It would be much cheap for the county if they would just trust the teenagers instead of hiring extra officers to hunt them down.
Any crime is unfortunate, but when the crime rate among teens during curfew hours has been shown to make a significant impact on crime, the county cannot enforce it. It is unjust. Not all of the teenagers should be punished for a few teenagers actions. The county should rather support late night activities that may be educational, and keep teens off the street instead of forcing a bed time on them. by.
