Once they get jobs that can be able to afford their own shelter and hence they will be out of the streets. This will solve the problem of being homeless in America since the homeless will now afford to pay for a decent shelter and hence get out of the streets and shelters.

For juvenile girls according to this theory they tend to commit more crimes since they know that even if they are apprehended the officers will be more lenient with them and in many cases, they find themselves out of custody faster as compared to their male counterparts. With this knowledge then they would not fear committing….....
