How The Society Defines Crime

A criminal is someone who has become publicly associated with commission of crime. 

And also crime is behavior that violates criminal law. 

It can be defined through laws, through official police reports of crime, or through victimization surveys of persons who have been involved in crime but perhaps not involved with the police department. 

            The person that didn’t want to maintain peace, justice, law and order in the Country, and he is always against what is good and beneficially for the whole people.

Home Affairs Ministry to use Education as Weapon Against Crime

            The ministry of Home Affairs is gearing to use educating young people as a weapon in the fight against crime.

            According to a spate of advertisements inclusive of those appearing some discuss issues; the ministry announced that it has secured financing from the Inter-American Development Bank towards the cost of the Citizen Security Programme. 

According to the advertisements the Community Action Component of the programme caters for the provision of skills and vocational training to disadvantaged youths under the age of 25 who have dropped out of school or who may be illiterate. 

It is stated that the goal of the training is to lower the rate of youth violence and crime and to ultimately safe-guard neighborhoods.

            Research has long recognized that intervention at an early age and education are critical aspects in lowering the crime rate in any Country. 

This is because if a child has early education on how to do what will be beneficiary in his life, he will never be a kind of persons that will be bringing all those conflict in their Community and also the Country at large. 

That is why even in the book of Proverbs 29:17, the Bible is telling us that parent should discipline their children and they will give them peace; they will bring delight to their soul. 

This simply means if child is educated from his childhood, he will make his community happy and also his family entirely, not only so even God Himself.

The Purpose of Education

            Education has a vital role playing in a society; people live with knowledge of knowing what is good and also bad. 

In the issues of Education, their are responses of connote to it, this should be worldly responses or Christian responses, which parent uses to say:

1.      Typical Responses (Worldly responses of Parents:

a.       To prepare my child for university so that he can get a good job and have a happy successful life.

b.      So that my child may not have to go through the financial struggles that I have had to endure.

c.       So that my child will be comfortable in life.

d.      So that my child will be respected and admired by others.

e.       So that my child will be socially adjusted and able to fit in to society properly.

f.        So that my child will get ahead of the herd.

g.       So that my child could read some quotes from week articles.

2.      Christian Purpose of Education:

a.       To be conformed to the image of Christ. This means to love as Christ loved, to pray like Christ prayed, to forgive like Christ forgave, to live like Christ lived.

b.      True education involves the truth. It involves knowing and speaking the truth. The primary source of truth is the Bible. The Bible is the absolute truth. It is the only source for absolute truth (Ephesians 4:15,                John 8:32, 14:6).

c.       Ephesians 4:14 says. “That we henceforth be no more children tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine. “God wants his people to be stable to know what they believe it so strongly that they are unmoved by those teaching anything else.

d.      True education involves unity of the faith that is being in harmony with other Christians. No person can be a successful person living all by himself.

e.       True education involves knowing the Son of God. this knowledge can only be gained through personal contact (Ephesians 4:11-16).

Understanding Children

            Children are engaged in a continuous process of learning about themselves and their world, not necessary they must be told. 

As they mature, that world expands from their home and parents to siblings to poor and, eventually, to people and places they know about but may never actually see. 

In order to function successfully in society, children must learn to know themselves, to achieve self-identity. 

They must also learn about social interaction and recognize ways in which they are like as well as different from others. 

Those are psycho-social ways of thinking. At the same time, children are experiencing tremendous growth in cognitive abilities and in motor skills.

            Adults who are responsible for planning educational experiences will find that knowledge of child development is helpful in making literature a meaningful part of children’s lives. 

The need of children should be noted and solve by parent so that they will grow with good mind in order to build our Country; state, local Government, Villages, not only so, but even our tribe.

 we can see that “education is the most powerful weapon to change the world,” as said Nelson Mandela. 

Education is the foundation of the society and every sector (army, economy, religion, etc.) depends on it. 

Education allows respect of human rights, other people and also tolerance of other beliefs. 

Education can also be a weapon against totalitarianism or single thought. 

However, education can also lead to some scourges (violence, crimes, wars, dictatorship, etc.) when it is used in a bad way. 

That is why it is really important to promote education throughout the world in order, why not, to change the world in the more or less immediate future.
