What reading level is The Wayward Child a Study of the Causes of Crime book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Some restrictions are laid down, however, as to the age at which an 160 THE WAYWARD CHILD individual can be regarded as responsible for his deeds. The limit varies in the different states from seven to fourteen years of age. Until 1899 criminal procedure was everywhere the same for children as for adults, provided of course the child did not fall within the age limit of the state where the offense was committed.
After arrest the individual is given a hearing, usually in a magistrate's court. In... large cities there may be forty or more of these courts, one for each ward or district. All so-called minor cases are heard and decided there. There is no jury, and yet the power of commitment to re- formatories or prisons is given to these magis- trates. In criminal procedure there really are no minor cases, for if crime is to decrease the time to prevent it is before the offender has become habituated to wrongdoing. As it is, many thou- sands of men, women and children are tried yearly in these courts and their futures are often decided then and there.
