2.Although it has been demonstrated that diversion programs have had moderate success, creating a “positive peer culture” to prevent delinquency has disadvantages. What disadvantages come from using positive peer culture techniques, and why?

Disadvantages come from using positive peer culture techniques are related to non permanence of measures.

Explanation:

The reason that people fall to peer pressure and do terrible things is not peer pressure itself but because they are gullible.

This understanding is very central if one is out to get why positive peer pressure is extremely easy to fall back from.

Most of the times, the people who are in positive peer pressure begin to show good progress but as soon as they are back with their old influence they are falling back into their old habits.

To curb this, the need is to help people be self reliant and not rely on peers at all.
