Recent figures show an increase in violent crime among youngsters under the age of 18. Some psychologists claim that the basic reason for this is that children these days are not getting the social and emotional learning they need from parents and teachers.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

Today, rate of crime is increased. Unfortunately, we see rate of children that do criminal activities are more than the past. Some people believe this is happened because of parents. They do not pay attention to their children.

A sentence said, "A baby that is born is innocent". I completely agree with this sentence. Parents and in next level teachers have a responsibility about children. When children suffer from lack of emotional and attentions, they try to get these needy from other ways. Some of them attend to do illegal activities such as using drug or become a thief and so on.

In addition, there is more reason for this behavior. Today, we have many problems around the world such as poverty. First, poverty is reason for many crimes. It does not matter how old are you, when your are poor, you have more potential to violent than rich people.

Secondly, nowadays, our children spend more time to play computer games. These games are full of violence. In all games, there is a killer that his duty is killing other people, so these games have bad effect on children. Children are attended to do criminal activities in society.

To sum up, I agree with idea that rate of crime is increased between younger generation because of parents and teachers. The most criminal teenagers that we see today, have bad parents. Parents have to take care of their children and give theme love. Also, teachers in schools must show student the correct way of life. They must lead student to happiness. If students have problems in their home, it is responsible of teachers to take care of student and try to solve their problems.
