Answer:

A.

Explanation:

A deviant behavior can be defined as the behavioral pattern that stands in the contradiction of the norms of the society.

The Differential association theory was theorised by Edwin Sutherland in 1939. According to this theory of deviance, people tend to learn the values, attitudes, and motives for criminal activities from the people that one is surrounded with. This theory has played a vital role in analysing the behavior and studies of criminology.

In the case, the parents who say that their offsprings have learned the deviant behavior from the company of bad people or crowd resembles the theory of differential association proposed by Edwin.

So, the correct answer is option A.
