People who come from a broken and disintegrating homes lack love and affection, they do not have values or moral principles to guide them, and consequently they become involved in adverse situations and show behavior that is difficult to deal with.

Many researchers have pointed out that generally speaking people, who are in socially unacceptable situations, have grown up in a violent family environment where interpersonal relationships were not effective at all.

The turbulent relationships between parents and children, parents unable to discover the problems their children have, parents who force their children to do things that are not right, lack of unity in the family, parents who encourage and/or promote an incorrect behavior in their children, parents who put few or no restrictions on their children, are only some of the characteristics found in human beings who are immersed in the criminal world, drugs and prostitution.

Now a day, many children suffer greatly because of the breakup of the family, whereas other children have parents who barely give them any time, so they grow up without the attention and moral instruction they need.

Some experts believe that poor children and socially at-risk children do not develop affective ties because of the unfavorable circumstances surrounding them so it is easier for them to live an inhuman life style.
