Answer to Question 2

 Developmental prevention refers to interventions, especially those targeting risk and protective factors, designed to prevent the development of criminal potential in individuals. Developmental prevention of juvenile delinquency is informed generally by motivational or human development theories on juvenile delinquency, and specifically by longitudinal studies that follow samples of young persons from their early childhood experiences to the peak of their involvement with delinquency in their teens and crime in their 20s.
 The developmental perspective claims that delinquency in adolescence (and later criminal offending in adulthood) is influenced by behavioral and attitudinal patterns that have been learned during an individual's development..
 From this perspective, prevention activities are organized around different stages of the life course. The discussion of developmental prevention of juvenile delinquency is divided into two stages: childhood and adolescence.
