Question: 1 / 400

What can increase the risk of a youth becoming a violent offender?

Stable family environment

Becoming violent before age 13

Explanations A stable family environment (option A) can actually decrease the risk of a youth becoming a violent offender. Option C, lack of access to video games, does not have any correlation to an individual's violent tendencies. Similarly, high academic achievements (option D) also do not have any inherent relationship to violence. The most significant risk factor for youth becoming violent offenders is having a history of violence before the age of 13 (option B). Early exposure to violent behavior can lead to a normalization of such behaviors and increase the likelihood of future violent actions.
