Crime In Society Essay, Research Paper

What is this world coming to? Our society is losing its

authority. Why is there so much crime in society? There is so

much because there are so many people that never consider the

other person that they are stealing from or causing harm to. All

of these people are self-centered and never think who they could

be hurting but what they are going to gain from the crime

whether it be happiness or self-respect they don?t think of the

consequence or how the person on the other side of the crime

feels. The reason why this is, is because the parents today are not

cutting it. They are not teaching their children the difference

between right and wrong. How come Aristotle says that society

perfects human but yet no one is perfect?

If our parents would take a little more responsibility with

their children we wouldn?t have so much crime. Our parents are

not putting enough restriction on the kids. There are letting them

roam free because they feel guilty when their children complain

and cry so they let them have their way. On a few cases the

parents try their best but they still grow up to be some of the

unfortunate cases that still commit crimes. These types of

criminals are the ones that have an influence to commit crimes.

Most of the time the main influence is peer pressure. Usually the

person wants to fit in so he commits a crime thinking that he will

be excepted. There are also very few cases of when the person

grows up and unfortunately has a natural desire to break the

rules. Fortunately this can be corrected from grammar school if

caught early, if not it can lead to horrible consequences. If

parents are lucky they can raise a normal child that will lead to a

good life with much to gain from a few years of hard work to many

years of happiness and feeling that you have completed your

mission as a parent to raise a good child. I think what Aristotle is

trying to say when he says that society perfects humans is that

without society we would be farther away to perfection than we

are now. I disagree with this because no matter what influence

you have it is impossible to be perfect. Which means that society

or government or anything else has nothing to do with the

perfection of humans. If Aristotle was correct almost everyone on

the face of the earth would be perfect because almost everyone

has a society to lean on when in time of misfortune and need.

Another reason why there is so much crime is because of all of

the people out there that think that they can manipulate someone

to the extent of almost hypnosis to do what they say. If these

people would stop pressuring so many helpless children to lead a

wrong kind of life. If these people would not think this we the

people can change the things that have already happened to some

of the children and prevent it from happening again. I doubt this

will happen due to the fact that so many people themselves are

corrupt and would just make the situation worse than it already is.

If all of the ignorant people that think that the world was made

for them to destroy come to their senses and realize what harm

the have done and the harm that they can prevent from happening

to other people. Hopefully one day the people that use their

power over other people to make our world better than what it is

now because of so many people using their power in a "devilish"

way to get what they want.

If today, we could restrict our children better we would be

better off due to the fact that children with none or hardly any

restrictions will eventually become criminals. In the near future

the world might change so my hypothesis would be proven wrong

by at least 10 people with low restrictions to become succesful in

life which I find hard to believe.
