Summary/Abstract: Educating a person, helping to discover what is essential, is an extremely responsible and difficult task. This process “has never been easy, but today it seems to be becoming more and more difficult. Parents, teachers, priests and all those who have direct educational responsibility know this well” (Benedictus PP XVI, 2008). Educators are particularly required to teach the good, to make the truth accessible, to prepare for a creative and responsible life. The article indicates the need to educate minors towards higher values, which will determine their high degree of socialization. According to the author, such upbringing determines the development of the individual in accordance with the adopted educational model, which is also the prevention of juvenile delinquency. The article presents the phenomenon of crime in legal and statistical terms, with particular emphasis on its consequences for society. Reference was also made to Kazimierz Dąbrowski’s theory of positive disintegration, which is a holistic, interdisciplinary approach to the issue of human development, i.e., from primitive integration to global secondary integration, which determines human self-improvement.
