designed to improve communication comfort about sexually related issues within
families, especially between parents and their adolescents. Adolescents often
engage in a wide range of high-risk sexual behaviors that can result in adverse
health, social, and economic consequences for themselves and their families.
Many of the programs serving teens and their families do not utilize social
learning or other similar approaches to facilitate effective communication about
sex between parents and their adolescents. In addition, many programs do not
emphasize effective familial communication about adolescent sexuality,
specifically the prevention of pregnancy and STIs, and this lack of attention may
explain why changes in adolescents knowledge, attitudes, and skills have not
always resulted in corresponding changes in their risk-taking sexual behaviors.

behaviors, discomfort experienced by parents and their adolescents in speaking
about adolescent sexuality can prevent effective sex education from occurring.

need to present himself upon a judge. If either the client or officer wants to make
an appearance in court, an agreement cannot be reached, or threats have been
made involving either parties or others, a court decision is most suggested. In
addition, to making the correct choices, good community programs are also
necessary to place delinquents in a better environment to be able to succeed.
Though juveniles tend to steal, trespass, fight, drink, take drugs, use profanity,
run away from home, and miss school, many solutions were being thought about
to prevent these flaws. The first has already been mentioned and deals with
toughening up and placing juveniles in adult courts. The removing offenders
from society for longer periods of time will reduce crime. Those who have not
committed a serious crime will come to the realization of the possible
punishments such as life in prison, the death penalty, and others. Violent
offenders would be less likely to repeat their crimes by learning from their first
