In Discussions of the effect poverty has on a person that makes them capable of committing a crime, starvation is one of the many ways that lead people to a life of crime. On the one hand, Hossain, Naomi, Michael D. M. Bader, Marnie Purciel, Paulette Yousefzadeh, and Kathryn M. Neckerman and Ng, Isabella F. S., et al. argue that poverty has a major effect on human behavior, especially in adolescents. On the other hand, Brooks-Gunn, Jeanne, and Greg J. Duncan and Raleigh, Erica, and George Galster argued that through the lack of studies on income and its effect on adolescence makes it troublesome to prove that poverty has any true effects on childhood and if children complete school. Papachristos, Andrew V., et al fluctuates on both sides of

Hossain brings forth the idea that the economic crisis can have a last and continuous effect on society/security. Hossain even brings up an example, “Crucially, both crime, and social cohesion impacts have immediate consequences. (Hossain, 2009)” Hossain even continues on to state that young females in Nairobi had a high rise in pregnancies attributed to the exchange of sex for food and snacks (2009). Through Hossain’s studies, it had shown that crimes had risen exponentially in the time frame of three months and more so after certain seasons. Hossain’s studies prove that the struggle to be the hierarchy instead of poverty has always been statistically …show more content…

The truth is that it isn’t the fault of the people, but the economy when it fluctuates. For people with not so stable jobs, this can put a damper on their lives. People shouldn’t have to get more than two jobs to support a family. It is important to look at these key values when looking to bring out the best of your country and your future. It is because of children having to go into the labor force or use other unfortunate means to get money for food, shelter, etc. that I have concluded that it is now an issue of severity that must be taken up and look at. The best means to eliminate this problem would be to start helping our community members. People should rise to the challenge and focus on building a foundation of impending success for a community. Ultimately, my goal is to demonstrate that the best way to potentially do this would be to fund more adolescent help programs, work with adolescents to aim for higher education, make sure the community is being up kept, and the list could go on. There are many things that you as a person can do to
