Description

The Children in Conflict with Law (CCL) is one of the two categories of children under the Juvenile Justice Act, 2015 (JJA, 2015). The behaviour formation of the CCL is significant because it could help the children: (a) from being a possible threat to society, and (b) being disciplined at all stages of their growth. The failure of behaviour correction of CCL may lead to severe recidivism, and can potentially
transform them into experienced criminals who would not be tolerated by any society. Reintegration of CCL back into their family is the best solution for the problem. The research “Factors influencing family reintegration of CCL” is an attempt to find the factors influencing these children, their family environment, and the society as a whole for reintegration. This fact-finding study has been completed with an explanatory sequential method in a mixed-research approach. The child offender’s demographic details, personality, family environment, social support, and protective factors were part of this research’s study. The data were collected both quantitativelyand qualitatively. The self-made interview schedules and a standardised tool of the Big Five Personality Inventory were used quantitatively. Case studies through indepth interviews and observations were applied qualitatively to collect data. Simple frequency analysis and cross-case study with thematic analysis have been used for analysing the data. Though many powerful social support systems like the Juvenile Justice Board (JJB), District Child Protection Unit (DCPU), Police and Non Governmental Organisations (NGO) supported the reintegration of CCL actively, the personality of the children and their family environment with its’ traditions had created adverse effects on the attempts towards reintegration.
