A curfew is thought to be able to keep teenagers out of trouble and inside the house. Trouble does not have a time limit it can occur when ever and however throughout the day. Thinking that setting a time limit will actually keep a child inside is absurd. A child will go where he pleases to go, when his mind is made up nothing can stop him. We are not even talking about little children we are talking about teenagers the most rebellious of human beings. They are at an age where being absolutely rebellious is cool and fun and being cool and fun is all they know. Being accepted is so high at this point of their life, you cannot just pass something that is supposed to keep them contained. They will do a lot more just to prove to you they are in

“The incidence of juvenile violence increases through the afternoon and early evening hours, peaking between 7 p.m. and 9 p.m.”(OJJDP Statistical Briefing Book). If they wanted to commit crimes they can do them inside there “timely curfew.” Crimes happen all throughout the day and a lot are actually caused by adults instead of teenagers.
