Essay About Curfew

Curfews When the Government sees teens out after dark at night, they don’t see kids just living their lives but criminals trying to commit more crimes. When youths go outside at night most of them are just trying to have fun, get some fresh air, or maybe just to hang out with their friends, but with curfews, you can’t even walk across the street without an adult after the set time of the towns specific curfew. It’s not fair to punish all youths for the actions of the few individuals that…

"Mankind has gotten on just fine without curfews weighing down their mind"—is exactly what a naive person would say! However, I, myself, am not naive. I believe that curfews are very vital to a child's development. Assigning a curfew to a child's life leaves them with many valuable morals and traits, such as: structure, responsibility, and can ultimately lead up to a longer, healthier life, physically and mentally. To begin with, an enforced curfew incorporates structure to a child's life…

believe that there should not be a curfew that would make it illegal for teenagers to be out after 10 p.m. on weekdays and midnight on the weekends. First, many teens already have so many restrictions, so why should they endure another one? Adding another limit to their life will only make teens stressed. This matter should be dealt with parents and the teenagers themselves in private. They should decide how late their teenagers can stay out and if they should have a curfew. Parents’ trust in…

Introduction I chose to take part in a town council meeting pertaining to Virginia’s curfew. This is a town council meeting that addresses the concerns of juvenile crime a motion originated by the Civic League Leaders to help the police stop juvenile crimes that have been occurring in the state of Virginia by juvenile’s mainly at night time hours. The city council is voting on a proposal to expand it’s curfew to include 17 year olds. Of course the teenagers aren’t going to like this but it’s for…

seat mom and dad because what I’m going to explain to you two is going to take a while. When you were younger did you have a curfew? Probably not and that’s why you gave me one so I do not make the same mistakes from you. That’s one of your jobs to make us turn out better then you, sort of like a generation that becomes a better person over generation. I’m talking about curfew because I am hoping you can make an exception. As you know I’m seeing a girl named Chris and she lives about 30 minutes…

If the curfew is changed before 10 p.m. then many teens might sneak out and get in trouble. During teen years you should be having fun and living life without a care. If they’re forced to go in earlier then they could possibly sneak out and get in trouble. I believe they should keep the curfew after 10 p.m. Firstly, teens that have a job would have to leave early. The less they work, the less money they make. Some teens support their families with the jobs they have. If the curfew is…

Curfews, they're becoming a hot topic of debate across the nation. Even our city counsel is caught up in it by considering a 10 P.M weekday and midnight weekend curfew for teenagers. Yet as with every debate, they are facing stern opposition. However, I feel that those opposing the curfew are overlooking the fact that this system curfew will fix severe community problems. Setting a curfew would keep teens safe from dangerous nighttime conditions, exhaustion and criminal activity common at these…

run the streets. Teenagers will do as they please no matter the consequences or legal curfew. The terror some teenagers could leave behind is impossible to stop always. Teenagers may drag their feet, nag, and brag, but not all of them are rebellious. Changing the curfew on weekdays to 10 and weekends to midnight is pointless because teenagers thrive off of disobedience, not all teenagers are rebellious, and curfew interferes with teenagers young lives. The adrenaline is what makes a teenager…

America have curfews, it’s always been that way, but how would kids and teens react to having curfew set by law rather than their parents? Past a set time, teenagers off all ages have to be treated unfairly, like criminals. Why should innocent teens be punished for doing nothing wrong? If someone robbed a bank, would the people at the bank get arrested? No, so why should teens be any different? Just because they’re not adults, doesn’t mean they shouldn’t have their born rights. Curfews imply…

Curfew for Teens For most teens, their high school years are the best years of their lives. These are the years that teens should be able to go out and enjoy, instead of being trapped in the house because of a curfew. Though the nine o’clock curfew will get teens at home at a safe time, it still has its flaws. Enforcing this curfew could cause problems, such as, effecting teens who have jobs, needing more law enforcement, and limiting time for social activity. For many teens, parents want…
