What will be an ideal response?
All theories maintain that although a criminal career may be initiated at any time, it is almost always begun in childhood or adolescence. The duration of a criminal career may be limited to one offense, or it can last well into old age, with the frequency and seriousness of offending varying widely. Onset, frequency, duration, seriousness, and desistance depend on a variety of interacting individual and situational factors that vary across the life course.
