The book explores the pervasive issue of youth crime in South Africa, focusing on the significant influence of home and family circumstances. It highlights that socio-economic factors often drive youth offending, with a particular emphasis on the role of parenting in socialization. Through interviews with social workers, juvenile offenders, and probation officers, the research reveals that many youth offenders experience inadequate socialization or are exposed to environments that foster violent behavior. The findings urge South Africans to reflect on their parenting practices to help mitigate crime.
