"Data gathered from a variety of sources indicate that after a period of relative stability in the rates of juvenile crime, there was a major turning point in about 1985. A. Blumstein, Violence by Young People: Why the Deadly Nexus?, National Institute of Justice Journal 229 (August, 1995). Then, within the next seven years, the rate of homicides committed by young people, the number of homicides they committed with guns, and the arrest rate of non-white juveniles for drug offenses, all doubled."
"Between 1984 and 1993, arrests of juveniles for violent offenses rose by nearly sixty-eight percent."
So the parents of your generation were probably the worst ever when it comes to raising criminals.
