    Teenagers are susceptible to vices such as alcohol, drugs, sex, and others that sometimes drive them to commit crimes. Peer pressure is another thing, teenagers find difficult to get rid of. Hence, these young people turn away from God because they are pre-occupied with so many things. I believe this is where families and parents, especially, should enter into the picture. Parents/families should guide, monitor, maintains communications with our kids and lead them to the right path.

      Turning away from religion is only one factor there are lot of other factors. The economic condition, inflation, poverty, unemployment, educational facilities etc are some of the factors which contribute to these crimes.

      Now coming back to religion, you are right that religion is a big factor but when someone doesn't have money to take his/her food then he/she will definitely cross limits by taking law in his/her hand.

      The government should provide all basic health, employment, education facilities to public and parents should observe their children closely and give them social and religious education.
