You are asked to give advice to a program that has been given a large amount of money to facilitate learning in children.

Many theorists have argued what they believe are the factors that cause crime. But, few have articulated that criminal activity is simply a natural part of the life course (within some societies). In fact, while most theories articulate why crime might begin, none adequately describe why it stops. That is, until now.

Given the basic premises of developmental theories, if you believe it to be true that crime is something that is likely to occur during one's youth, until turning points and life experiences make one change their negative course of action, what are your thoughts about the following:

1) Given that most people are going to age out of crime anyway, does it truly make sense to have harsh penalties for those under age 22-25? Is it possible that the very act of incarceration prevents the natural aging out process?? Does it take them away from the job market and from learning self-regulating skills that others aged 18-22/25 learn naturally?

2) Given that adolescence is being extended to cover "youth" aged 18-23, do you think that the "natural" aging out process is likely to take place much later than historically it might have? Or will laws that apply to adults vs youth continue to pressure 18+ to behave more positively - esp in light of the fact that many juveniles are treated like adults already?

3) Lastly, did you personally ever experience a turning point or "ah ha" moment where you started to mature or otherwise decide to stop your crime committing ways? What prompted this??
