In the fall of 2009 the city council of Greenville SC set a curfew. The curfew is for teens (under 18) and starts at 10 p.m. The big question here is after almost two years has this curfew been working, has it solved the problems that the city was having? First we must ask what was the problem? The problem was that parents where dropping their kids off downtown around 10-11 and leaving them unsupervised; and that led to fights and vandalism. So has this been fixed by a curfew? According to Greenville police it has helped. There has been reports saying that before the curfew there was over 300 kids wondering the streets after dark, no there is only about 100. So has much as many of us don’t like this new law, it is for every ones benefit.
