12% of crime is from teenagers
but adults believe so much more from the media.
The news of the world says that they don't just educate they entertain so having a teen behaving badly is much more entertaining than watching a teen being good. this means that the bad story's get more space.

David camerson's comment in july that he was terrified by the porospect of sending his children to a local state secondary school...
Can you link in Mcrobbies smybolic violence theory? how?
They link together issues such as bad discipline, falling standards, crime, and feral children, with educational standards in disadvantaged schools. In so doing, they end up encouraging a massively exaggerated view of problems like crime and drugs, and stigmatise schools in disadvantaged areas.
How far do you agree with this article that governments decisions and policies are continuing to create a divide between the middle and working class?
