I'm hearing word of a possible kurfew for kids under 18 in Poland. Anyone in PL hear anything about this?
Under 18 curfew in Poland
True.
There is talk of this.
There is talk of this.
And this is all over? What time are they thinking? Do you think this will cause more underage to rebel and cause more trouble afterhours?
I don't know much about it. It's all down to our education minister. And you know what we think of him.
yeah... sure do.

what did others hear?

The fascist Giertych said curfews would only be imposed after local referenda.
It's a good move - would you want to be hounded by little thugs?

I don't see any problems here, so we don't need a curfew.
Besides if anyone is going to commit a crime they will do it regardless of a curfew.

My locality doesn't need it either, thankfully. Some places might, though.

They have a curfew system in England for criminals, its known as the "tag". Basically when you are on the tag you have a device fitted to your leg, if you leave the house during your curfew hours it calls the police and you are arrested.

yall should not do that it is mean to everybody if you do!
A similar policy exist in the UK. groups of more than 2 children are not allowed to congregate in certain exclusion area's. Its effective.
A curfew is not really a solution.
Its education from a very early level.
Its getting involved in the community - get them before they get bored and get into anti social behaviour
Im one to talk - I wouldnt be volunteering to do this - I know its something that requires paid, trained proffesstional people to engage the community with full support (it aint coming) from funders (gov't local business)
It is an investment to be sure - the stats speak for themselves (anti social behavior is on the rise and rise!)
a curfew is not a proactive solution and is not a really good reactive solution.
after suggesting the above proactive - what would i suggest as reactive?
open centres where they can 'hang' out in a safe, monitored envoirment. Show films, tv, computer games. (all under CCTV to ensure safetyy and issue fines and communtity service to YOUNG age offenders! forget prison - thats a cost to community rather than a cost to the offender
