Prior to and since the latest ruling, his father has made comments that Dave is a "loser," "delinquent," and "criminal," and will never get anywhere but jail.

Dave has accepted that he is a "loser" and continues to engage in vandalism and starts to smoke pot and drink alcohol. He currently has started dating Catherine, a young girl from the next town over who was recently arrested for DUI and resisting arrest.

Answer 1

The correct answer is Nonintervention

Explanation: The society that assigns the label of “delinquents” to certain individuals. In other words, social groups seek to draw behavioral lines to define right and wrong, and from this, individuals who transgress behavior defined as right are considered an outsider (someone who has not lived up to the established rules).

To substantiate this theory, a study of the phenomenon known as black cipher was performed, which represents the number of crimes that are actually committed but which do not appear in official statistics, which shows that despite the fact that most people have already committed some kind of crime In life, only a tiny portion of the offenses will be investigated and will lead to a lawsuit that results in a criminal conviction. This shows that the risk of being tagged does not depend on conduct but on the situation of the agent in the social pyramid.
