dc.description | A paper read before the Statistical Section of the British Association, at Belfast, September 3, 1852 | en |
dc.description.abstract | If children are allowed to grow up in misery, subject from the
cradle to want, wretchedness, and ill usage ? if they are cut off
from opportunities of learning religion ? if they hear no word of
kindness, experience no sympathy ? if home and its endearments
are to them unknown ? if they are accustomed to witness exhibitions
of cruelty, indecency, and brutality ? what can be expected
but a race of paupers and criminals?
I confine myself to the perishing and dangerous classes, specially
the young, and commence, by inquiring ? What is the true
extent and real state of juvenile delinquency ? | en |
