Answer 2

Answer:

D. Stealing and wrecking a neighbour's car

Explanation:

- Delinquency is related to different deviant behaviors that are generally related to youth. Sociologist Anthony Giddens defines deviation as a non-compliance with a set of norms that are accepted by a significant number of people in a society. However, deviant behavior cannot be associated only with those who comment on crimes, or delinquents, since all of us at some point end up adopting some behavior that does not comply with normative conduct. Therefore, we must be careful not to generalize all deviant behavior as a criminal.

- Unruly are attitudes of indiscipline such as: insults and aggressions between colleagues that need intervention and care than behaviors such as wearing a cap in the classroom. If a teacher treats all these actions in the same way, those who have performed lighter acts may revolt and respond with an even greater level of indiscipline.
