Timely (early) prevention of illegal behaviour of minors as basis for juvenile crime prevention

Timely prevention of wrongful conduct should create conditions for positive parenting, personal development, ensuring its security, as well as early detection of typical crisis situations arising in adolescents. In cases there is a tendency for youth anti-social or unlawful behaviour, the facts of anti-social impact on a minor it is necessary to stop this kind of behaviour and negative impact. In the basis of timely prevention of illegal behaviour of juveniles of the strategically important directions are the activities for the prevention of crimes and administrative offences. Prevention is applied when a person appears intent to commit a crime, the decision is made and planned to be executed. There still is no criminal action, there is no stage of preparation for a crime or attempted crime, the endangered teenager is not criminally responsible. However, if there are grounds, the minor should be punished in an administrative or disciplinary procedure with a view to form the sense of responsibility for their behaviour and the inadmissibility of impunity. To influence the minors positively with the purpose of preventing them from illegal actions their families should be actively used, educational institutions, bodies of guardianship and trusteeship, bodies on youth affairs, management bodies of social protection of the population (shelters, social assistance centres for children, left without parents' guardianship), specialized social service institutions (centres of emergency psychological aid, territorial centres of assistance to family and children), institutions providing psychological help to families and children. For the purposes of socio-legal control in all educational institutions and labour collectives it is offered to recreate the institution of public exposure to the violators of discipline and committers of administrative offence. In the secondary schools priority indicators, together with the academic performance and discipline, should be moral, patriotic and physical education of students. Today, domestic legislation must not only create conditions for the formation of a highly moral and law-abiding person, but also to ensure the profitability of law-abiding behaviour. After all, until the wrongful conduct in the society will look more profitable than law-abiding, any measures will fail to educate a worthy personality.
