(Policy and Elections 03.01 HC) Imagine your local city council is considering a city-wide curfew in response to a recent increase in crimes committed by teens. The proposed curfew would prohibit unsupervised children under 17 from being out after 9:00 p.m. on weekdays, and after 10:00 p.m. on weekends. Some believe the curfews is a good prevention tool, keeping at-risk kids from becoming victims or criminals. Opponents argue confining innocent youth to their homes does not make young people more responsible. In a well-written paragraph, analyze whether the benefits of creating this curfew are worth the costs. Use examples from personal experience or the module to support your answer. (9 points)

THIS IS A SHORT ANSWER...but here you go anyway...

Answer:

Passing the curfew would have both costs and benefits. The city would have to enforce the policy. Enacting the curfew also wouldn't provide any education to teens on the topic and prevention of the topic, so it wouldn't be a long term fix. It may keep more teens safe for the reason that smaller kids would be inside at night, however it would also inhibit the lives of kids that wanted to work, or go out and have innocent crime-less fun. The only benefit would be the potential drop off in teen related crime at the time of the passing of the curfew.

Hope this helps, have a good day. c;
