Q: Can a child go to Juve for arguing with their parents
I don’t have a good relationship with my mom and we argue a lot and she had threatened to send me to Juve for being Rebellious can she really do that
A: If you commit crimes then yes your parents can report your criminal acts to the officials. However, just arguing is not going to be enough to send you to a juvenile facility. Try and calmly communicate with your parents how you are feeling without escalating the situation. Consider writing to them so they can understand you and also take in what they are saying. If there is physical abuse then you should consult the police. But, do not do that with false information. Good luck to you and your family.
