Introduction

For the betterment of the youths below the 18 year, I can propose for curfews and restriction to driving in order to allow the youths to have good moral values and grow up with respect.
The curfews will help in regulating the wrong activities by the youths like drinking alcohol and smoking at their younger ages (Norris, 2016).
To restrict the youths from events that take place late in the night will help them be barred from violence activities and social immoralities
For the curfews to work in their legislative mandates there should be reinforcement by relevant authorities given the mandate.

Today, new curfew legislation often tries to solve more complex social ills, such as the inability of parents to control their children and

the alarming number of innocent children who are the unintended victims of drive-by shootings and other adult violence

Why should curfew be imposed to the youths below 18

The curfews will help in restricting youths from attending events at night like the one besides

The curfews will maintain peace among the youths and their parents (Espejo, 2009).

From statistics, the popularity of curfews as a means of combating teen crime has mushroomed. There are more than 700 cities have

enacted teen curfews, including 146 of the world's largest numbers.

The impact of the curfew

Originally the nighttime curfews are intended to protect the students from possible child neglect and public from juvenile delinquency.

Teens dying behind the wheel is another major concern for new curfews.

Restriction to driving by the youths

Restricting the youths from unauthorized driving in major highways will help the youths to have their lives safe since the youths when in peer groups behave negatively to show off
The restrictions are with their positive impact in helping the lives of our youths in their daily activities (Davis, 2011).
The youths should be allowed to drive only after their 18th year and with a valid driving license.

The earlier teens are off the roads, the more lives are saved. Teens have the highest number of fatalities out of every group.

Not only teens behind the wheel, but their passengers and other drivers are being save by these new driving curfews.

What really happens with our youths !

Why curfews

Curfews pass a given information to a given group
For example in our case, it prohibits the youths from attending events from the specified time
Curfew are the best tools of reforming youths (Siegel, & Welsh, 2016).

Some parents are seeing this as a major headache. They got their child to this point of responsibility and now they are have a new

worry keeping them up at night..

Importance of curfews

The legislative intent behind juvenile curfew laws is usually social order goals like prevention of crimes involving juveniles, and

maintenance of the general peace.

Conclusion

The restriction of the youths from driving and curfews on some activities by the youths will help the youth a great deal in molding them positively and having the agendas of the youths be a target of many who want to support them in developing academically, economically, financial and socially.
