just as anyone can. If your teenager is committing crimes they run
the risk of getting caught and this is likely to affect their future.

The Law it is important that you communicate your concerns to them.
Make sure you have the full facts before confronting them as you will
alienate them if you falsely accuse them of doing something.
Teenage crime can range from getting
involved in violent gangs, to shop-lifting, drug taking and under-age
drinking.
The following website provides you with

impact on you and details Youth Crime Prevention Programmes.
Once you have the facts you are in the
best position to help your teen. Your local Youth Offending Team can
help you to discover what help is available in your local area.
Whatever your teen has done, if you work to keep communicating with
them you are in the best possible position to help them though this
difficult time.
