What's the law? What does it mean? If the law is broken, especially criminal law, there may be a penalty. But who makes the law? How can the government draw lines in imposing individual responsibility? This book examines these questions in the context of dealing with youth, with case studies and analysis.

Out Law
Author: Lisa Keen
Publisher: Beacon Press
ISBN: 9780807079669
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
The enormous advances of the civil rights movement have made it easier for LGBT youth to be "out," yet their increased visibility has led to myriad legal issues involving such critical matters as freedom of expression, sexual harassment, self-chosen medical care, and even their right to privacy within their own families. In this accessible guide, Lisa Keen illustrates how some laws limit the rights of LGBT youth and others protect them. Out Law lays out the basics about federal, state, and local laws that frequently impact LGBT youth and explains how legal authority and responsibility is often vested in local officials, such as school principals. Keen explains how laws treating LGBT people differently came to exist, evolved over time, and are subject to significant changes even today. Out Law discusses the shifting legal terrain for such issues as when schools can censor messages on T-shirts or library computer research into LGBT-related Web sites. It gives youth tips on how to document efforts to curb their rights and where to turn for help in protecting those rights.

Children in Court
Author: Susan Gluck Mezey
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438412975
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
This book examines the role of the federal courts in policymaking for children. Believing that the federal courts are uniquely situated to provide relief to the less powerful in society, Mezey assesses the judiciary's response to the demands for children's rights and benefits across a number of policy areas and a range of statutory and constitutional issues. Through analysis of Supreme Court and lower court opinions over the last several decades, she determines the extent to which federal court decisionmaking has affected the legal, political, economic, and social status of children in the United States.

EVERDAY LAW FOR CHILDREN (Q)
Author: David J. Herring
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317260244
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
Everyday Law for Children provides an accessible introduction to laws that affect children and families and the dominant public debates that surround and drive these laws. Using real-world examples, the book exposes the tension between reliance on the private, autonomous family and the public's desire to secure child well-being. A look at some public systems, such as child welfare and juvenile delinquency, shows that an initial public aspiration to assist children and families is often frustrated by a lack of resolve and resources. In other areas, such as education and healthcare, the public shrinks from a commitment to comprehensive child well-being. Everyday Law for Children makes a case for the improvement of public systems by focusing on pragmatic goals related to child well-being. More immediately, it makes a case for zealous advocates for children who can have a dramatic impact on children's everyday lives. Accordingly, the book provides an annotated list of resources and contact information for parents and for service providers who need help addressing specific problems within complex public systems.

Child- and youth welfare law in Germany
Author: Manfred Günther
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3658382902
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 74
Book Description
Taking into account the KJSG of June 2021, the author presents child and youth law with SGB VIII at its centre in a clear and compact manner. Analyses and commentary appear consistently up-to-date and comprehensible, as he largely dispenses with legalese. Readers - custodial parents, other guardians, young people concerned, social educators in institutions, students - and last but not least the committed "lobbyists" in the youth welfare committees - are thus provided with a quick, profound overview of the essential policy and practice-relevant positions; the focus is on legal entitlements: offers, services as well as important and useful general regulations of the German Social Code for Child and Youth Welfare.
