Summary/Abstract: Antisocial behaviour is displayed more often by children and young people nowadays. This situation must lead to a modification of current proceedings. One tire may be seen in prevention and early intervention undertaken not by the criminal justice system but the local authorities. On the example of the English and Welsh system, the author puts forward a whole range of diversion, which may be applied in the case of minors violating normative order.
