Compare and contrast adolescence-limited offenders to life-course-persistent offenders. Describe the behaviors typical of each type of offender and the correlation between these types of offenders and parenting styles
What will be an ideal response?
Adolescence-limited-offenders are typically neither the best- nor the worst-behaved
children in school, nor are they typically the first in their classes to have sex, use
drugs, or be arrested. Their early parenting experiences may not be distinguishable
from that of adolescent nonoffenders. In contrast, life-course-persistent offenders
typically begin to display antisocial behavior as young children and become bullies.
They are typically the first in their classes to have sex, use drugs, and be arrested.
Their early parenting experiences typically reflect either severe punishment or
neglect.
