Answers will vary in terms of the explanations. However, a strong answer will identify the following social bonds:

• Commitment: What will I lose? (weighing costs and benefits)
• Involvement: “Idle hands are the devil’s workshop” (things to keep busy such as sports, homework, etc.).
• Belief: Awareness, understanding and agreement with rules and norms influence deviance (can be aware of norms and rules, yet less accepting of the moral validity of law).
