A Teenage Drama Story

A familiar scene those trapped in the spiral.

A very grey area for those brave enough to touch it.  New Zealand teenage crime is simply put 'hot and cold' in terms of its analysis towards the actual crime and the result.  A lot of remorse every month is shown in news articles around the globe.  Although one could spend annually a passionate amount of time deeply looking into an issue that desperately cries attention,  I will summarize and squeeze in some food for the brain over five points that as you could imagine, boil my blood however, on the flip side provide at least some hope for a future that could be bleak for New Zealand residents.  Here's the line up folks let's have a look on what will be discussed.  First we will look at the evidence surrounding 'Respect or Simple Ignorance', progressing from there we will look to see if 'Punishment is Working' elaborating what was discussed previously.  We will then take a look to see if there is anything helping our situation through 'Technology Helps?' finishing off with the future with 'Grim and the silver lining'  As you could imagine although the negativity from those titles suggest I am aggressive, angry, upset etc I am not.  I have belief in humanity and hope for the better tomorrow.  However society and many other factors are pointing toward teenagers for the blame.  My burning question that continuously eats away inside is always:

Can we put blame on the kids or the process?


Let's dive in and have a look at what is going on in the world of teenage crime.
