Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

The child savers favored the doctrine of parens patriae, which holds that the
o state has not only a right but a duty to care for children who are neglected, delinquent, or in some other way disadvantaged.
The child savers believed that juvenile offenders required treatment, not
o punishment, and they were horrified at the thought of placing children in prisons with hardened adult criminals.
Child-saving organizations convinced local legislatures to pass laws that allowed them to take control of children who exhibited criminal tendencies or had been
o neglected by their parents. To separate these children from the environment in which they were raised, the organizations created a number of institutions, the best known of which was New York's House of Refuge.
