Abstract/Summary
This study described the family relationships of juvenile criminals. In particular, the components of family relationships that were looked into were the marital relationship of the juvenile criminals' parents, the parent-child relationship, and the sibling relationship of the juvenile criminals. In order to obtain the necessary data, twelve male juvenile criminals, with ages fifteen to eighteen, were in-depth interviewed. The researchers used content analysis in evaluating the results of the study. Findings indicate that juvenile criminals see the marital relationship of their parents as not beyond normal their parent-child relationship as lacking in communication, discipline is in the form of physical punishment, and affection is equated with material things and their sibling relationship as having only limited interaction with one another. Other findings include low socio-economic status and peer influence.
