FACTORS INFLUENCING DEVIANT BEHAVIOUR AMONG ADOLESCENTS

Ms. M. Reena Rebellow

Abstract :

 The adolescents of today are the hope of tomorrow. The energy and the intelligence possessed by the present generation were surprising the people in their middle age and old age. In reality however, many people have started to express their grievances toward the behaviour of the adolescents. The deviant thought and behaviour exhibited by an adolescent influence their entire peer group and this further deteriorates their morality. It raises lot of questions about the factors responsible for these behaviours. The adolescents cannot be solely blamed for all the behaviours they exhibit rather the contributing factors for these deviant acts must be well checked and analysed. Features like educational system, family and parenting, peers, and social support system play a pivotal role in influencing the behaviours of the adolescents.
