Abstract:
The beginning of delinquent behavior is not at birth. It is not their choice, but Bangladesh'ssocio-legal environment that leads most young people to become delinquents. Juvenile delinquency has become a major concern in recent years due to an increase in children participating in criminal activities. But criminals, both male and female, are multiplying daily and committing a wide range of crimes, such as robbery, hijacking, carrying weapons and illegal substances, murder, trafficking, smuggling, and fraud. Numerous socioeconomic factors have affected them, such as peer pressure, excessive satellite television viewing, lack of direction, inappropriate internet use, and deprivation. Consequently, the way society is currently set up is destroying children's childhoods and depriving them of their rights. As an illustration, consider family life, education, health, games, care, and defense. For the purpose of protecting and preventing them, children must be given extra consideration, encouraging attention, and a child- friendly attitude. This thesis looks at significant sociolegal factors as well as contemporary trends that contribute to juvenile delinquency in Bangladesh.
