organization that was a victim of asset misappropriation. Write
a five to six-page paper in which you:
1. Based on your research, evaluate the type of asset
misappropriations that occurred at the organization, and assess
the factors that contributed to the misappropriation. Give your
opinion on whether poor management or lack of management
played a role in the asset misappropriation. Provide support for
your rationale.
2. Evaluate the legal mechanisms that could have been used to
recover assets through the civil and criminal justice systems.
Assess whether the civil and criminal justice systems did an
effective job in recovering the organization’s assets. Provide
support for your rationale.

Running head: FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS
Improving family relationships to reduce crime rates (Rough
Draft)

Improving family relationships to reduce crime rates (Rough
Draft)
The scholarly evidence shows that family structure impacts on
the crime rate in the society. Research shows that the lack of the
capacity to be responsible parents when bringing up their
children is a major cause of the explosion of crime in the
society. Problems with guidance and love during the early
stages of development have adverse social consequences for the
community and children. Family instability is a major cause of
violence in the society (Ahangaran & Dehpahlavani, 2014).
Therefore, addressing the root cause of crime in the society
should involve improving family relationships. Promoting
desirable family relationships plays a significant role in
reducing crime rates in the society. This paper seeks to argue
that improving family relationships helps to reduce the rate of
crime in the society.
The quality of the relationship between parents and children
plays a significant role in the tendency of children to engage in
criminal activities. Quality parent-child relationship enhances
the learning of taking control over oppositional, impulsive, and
aggressive behaviors (Piquero, Farrington, Welsh, Tremblay, &
Jennings, 2008). This helps in the reduction of disruptive
behaviors and the long-term adverse effects on social
integration. Quality relationships between children and parents
foster attunement, which is a set of complex and dynamic
patterns of sensitive mutual understanding between the child
and the parent (Farber, 2016). This is an important quality in
preventing future aggression that may lead to the engagement in
violent and criminal activities.
Improving family relationships helps in preventing breakups in
marriage, thus allowing children to benefit from the role of the
mother and the father, which helps prevent future engagement in
crime. Marriage breakup increases the risk of juvenile
delinquent because children are left with emotional pain, which
influences tobacco use, physical fighting, and weapon carrying.
However, with improved family relationships, children stay
with their parents who inculcate the desired values and morals.
The father and the mother both play significant, but different
roles in the development of the attitude and character of the
child. Research shows that positive relationships between the
father and the child reduce the risk of arrest for adolescents,
join a gang, and steal or damage property (Farber, 2016).
Research also shows that improved relationship between a
young man and the mother may influence him to turn away from
crime.
Quality family relationships play an essential role in
rehabilitating and reintegrating violent extremists. Family
serves as a pull factor in influencing violent extremists to
disengage from violent and criminal activities. Families
contribute allot to the success of rehabilitation and reintegration
efforts. An individual’s commitment to the family due to
improved family relationships is among the significant motives
that influence one to disengage from crime and violent
extremism (Global Counterterrorism Forum, 2017). Family
connections are an important factor in facilitating desirable
outcomes and developing cognitive openings that help former
violent extremists to reassess their continued engagement in
violent extremism. Improved family relationships are, therefore,
among the most effective buffers against the involvement in a
crime.
A section of scholarly evidence shows that improving family
relationships may not be a sufficient solution for reducing crime
rates in the society. There are other important factors that
influence the level of crime in the society, including poverty,
unemployment, political instability, and the design of buildings
and streets. For crime rates to be reduced in the society,
employment opportunities should be created for the young
people to make them productive, strategies to reduce poverty
should be developed and implemented, and political stability
should be promoted. Additionally, buildings and streets should
be designed in a way that does not create opportunities to
engage in crime (Marzbali, Abdullah, Razak, & Tilaki, 2011).
However, although there are other strategies that should be
implemented to reduce crime rates in the society, improving
family relationships is the most effective approach because it
helps avoid the desire to engage in crime at an early stage.
In conclusion, improving family relationships plays a
significant role in reducing crime rates in the society. Improved
family relationships help in inculcating morals that prevent
disruptive behaviors, preventing marriage breakup, which
allows children to benefit from the role of both the mother and
the father, and rehabilitating and reintegrating violent
extremists. Although other factors influence the reduction of
crime rates in the society, such as creating employment
opportunities, improving building and street design, reducing
poverty, and promoting political stability, improving family
relationships is the single most important requirement. There is
a need for additional research to rank the contribution of the
above factors in reducing crime rates.

Feedback Reflection
The feedback I received from my instructor required me to
improve make my thesis statement strong and ensure that points
provided in the outline include supporting points. To improve
my draft, I reframed the thesis statement to ensure that it helped
the reader to understand and expect the content of the paper.
This included taking a position by states that improved family
relationships would foster the reduction of crime rates in the
community. I also added supporting points to ensure that each
point contained adequate information to help the reader relate to
the thesis statement and influence desired actions. The feedback
will help me with my future writing by ensuring that every
paper contains a strong and accurate statement and each of the
points discussed in the paper is supported by related points.

  • 1. Assignment_Asset Misappropriation and Corporate Governance Due: September 04, 2017 by 6:00pm For this assignment, use the Internet to research and identify an organization that was a victim of asset misappropriation. Write a five to six-page paper in which you: 1. Based on your research, evaluate the type of asset misappropriations that occurred at the organization, and assess the factors that contributed to the misappropriation. Give your opinion on whether poor management or lack of management played a role in the asset misappropriation. Provide support for your rationale. 2. Evaluate the legal mechanisms that could have been used to recover assets through the civil and criminal justice systems. Assess whether the civil and criminal justice systems did an effective job in recovering the organization’s assets. Provide support for your rationale. 3. Assess management’s responsibility to share information related to the breach with various stakeholder groups, indicating what should be shared and how. Provide support for your rationale. 4. Review AICPA Statements on Auditing Standard (SAS) No. 99, “Risk Factors Relating to Misstatements Arising from Misappropriation of Assets,” found within the text. Assess SAS 99 risk factors and discuss if the risk factors were prevalent in the organization you researched. Give your opinion on whether or not organizations should implement a plan that reviews risk factors on a regular basis to determine if fraud has occurred. Explain why or why not. 5.

Research shows that the lack of the capacity to be responsible parents when bringing up their children is a major cause of the explosion of crime in the society. Problems with guidance and love during the early stages of development have adverse social consequences for the community and children. Family instability is a major cause of violence in the society (Ahangaran & Dehpahlavani, 2014). Therefore, addressing the root cause of crime in the society should involve improving family relationships. Promoting desirable family relationships plays a significant role in reducing crime rates in the society. This paper seeks to argue
  • 4. that improving family relationships helps to reduce the rate of crime in the society. The quality of the relationship between parents and children plays a significant role in the tendency of children to engage in criminal activities. Quality parent-child relationship enhances the learning of taking control over oppositional, impulsive, and aggressive behaviors (Piquero, Farrington, Welsh, Tremblay, & Jennings, 2008). This helps in the reduction of disruptive behaviors and the long-term adverse effects on social integration. Quality relationships between children and parents foster attunement, which is a set of complex and dynamic patterns of sensitive mutual understanding between the child and the parent (Farber, 2016). This is an important quality in preventing future aggression that may lead to the engagement in violent and criminal activities. Improving family relationships helps in preventing breakups in marriage, thus allowing children to benefit from the role of the mother and the father, which helps prevent future engagement in crime. Marriage breakup increases the risk of juvenile delinquent because children are left with emotional pain, which influences tobacco use, physical fighting, and weapon carrying. However, with improved family relationships, children stay with their parents who inculcate the desired values and morals. The father and the mother both play significant, but different roles in the development of the attitude and character of the child. Research shows that positive relationships between the father and the child reduce the risk of arrest for adolescents, join a gang, and steal or damage property (Farber, 2016). Research also shows that improved relationship between a young man and the mother may influence him to turn away from crime.
  • 5. Quality family relationships play an essential role in rehabilitating and reintegrating violent extremists. Family serves as a pull factor in influencing violent extremists to disengage from violent and criminal activities. Families contribute allot to the success of rehabilitation and reintegration efforts. An individual’s commitment to the family due to improved family relationships is among the significant motives that influence one to disengage from crime and violent extremism (Global Counterterrorism Forum, 2017). Family connections are an important factor in facilitating desirable outcomes and developing cognitive openings that help former violent extremists to reassess their continued engagement in violent extremism. Improved family relationships are, therefore, among the most effective buffers against the involvement in a crime. A section of scholarly evidence shows that improving family relationships may not be a sufficient solution for reducing crime rates in the society. There are other important factors that influence the level of crime in the society, including poverty, unemployment, political instability, and the design of buildings and streets. For crime rates to be reduced in the society, employment opportunities should be created for the young people to make them productive, strategies to reduce poverty should be developed and implemented, and political stability should be promoted. Additionally, buildings and streets should be designed in a way that does not create opportunities to engage in crime (Marzbali, Abdullah, Razak, & Tilaki, 2011). However, although there are other strategies that should be implemented to reduce crime rates in the society, improving family relationships is the most effective approach because it helps avoid the desire to engage in crime at an early stage.
  • 6. In conclusion, improving family relationships plays a significant role in reducing crime rates in the society. Improved family relationships help in inculcating morals that prevent disruptive behaviors, preventing marriage breakup, which allows children to benefit from the role of both the mother and the father, and rehabilitating and reintegrating violent extremists. Although other factors influence the reduction of crime rates in the society, such as creating employment opportunities, improving building and street design, reducing poverty, and promoting political stability, improving family relationships is the single most important requirement. There is a need for additional research to rank the contribution of the above factors in reducing crime rates. References Ahangaran, M. R., & Dehpahlavani, M. (2014).

Feedback Reflection The feedback I received from my instructor required me to improve make my thesis statement strong and ensure that points provided in the outline include supporting points. To improve my draft, I reframed the thesis statement to ensure that it helped the reader to understand and expect the content of the paper. This included taking a position by states that improved family relationships would foster the reduction of crime rates in the community. I also added supporting points to ensure that each point contained adequate information to help the reader relate to the thesis statement and influence desired actions. The feedback will help me with my future writing by ensuring that every paper contains a strong and accurate statement and each of the points discussed in the paper is supported by related points.
