Describe the history and evolution of the juvenile justice system in the western world, and list the six categories of children recognized by the laws of most states.

Prior to the advanced time, kids who perpetrated violations got no particular treatment and were arbitrated, rebuffed, and detained nearby adults. Starting a couple of hundred years prior, Britain (from which we infer a large number of our legitimate customs) adjusted the standard of parens patriae. That rule enabled the legislature to replace guardians in managing kids who violated the law. Around the center of the nineteenth century, the child savers movement started in the US. It embraced a reasoning of profitability and shunned inaction and corrupt conduct. Not long after, the 1899 codification of Illinois juvenile law turned into the model for juvenile court statutes all around the US. It made an juvenile court isolate in frame and capacities from adult criminal courts and in view of the rule of parens patriae. To avoid the enduring disgrace of guiltiness, the term delinquent (as opposed to criminal) was connected to young guilty parties. Soon, juvenile courts the nation over concentrated basically on the best advantages of the children as a guide in their considerations. Today most jurisdictions perceive the accompanying six classes of youngsters subject to juvenile court jurisdiction: delinquent, undisciplined, dependent, neglected, abused, and status offender
