Introduction

Childhood is expected to be a happy phase of individuals life. A life of health, proper nutrition, recreation and an environment; safe and conducive for wholesome growth, is a rosy picture of childhood. However, not all children are fortunate to enjoy such a favourable life. Most children in the world are undernourished, deprived and abused. Therefore, a world suitable for the happy growing up, seems a distant dream. Children face a number of challenges all around, which impact their mind and body. This many a times leads to their deviance, thus pushing them to delinquency. A delinquent child is looked down by the society as well as the justice delivery system which has pre-conceived notions about its guilt.
