"Delinquency itself is socially inadequate adjustment on the part of the individual to difficult situations. The factors which go to make up these difficult situations, together with the mental and physical condi- tions which influence an individual's capacity to adjust, constitute the causes of delinquency."
~ K. M. BANHAm BRIDGES
