Seniors Are Prone To Be A Victim Of Crimes

By Donna Phillips


In our society today, a lot of criminals have been very rampant. In a city or country crimes seem to multiply each time. Authorities are even having a hard time on dealing with this particular problem. Elder fraud is indeed a huge problem even from the beginning and until now.

We are all aware that older people are more vulnerable than young ones. They easily trust anybody without checking its background and motive. Well, I believe that these persons are not to be blamed here because they used to do it during their generation. Indeed, they grew up in a society where crimes were not that rampant.

Humans are basically gifted with conscious and subconscious minds. Conscious mind is the one that make a person realize the reality. In other words such is the counterpart of a dream of a person. On the other hand, subconscious rests solely on the dreams of a person. This not the reality but it affects greatly the behavior of men.

Poverty is very common nowadays because of the global crisis on financial. For this reason people tend to work harder than they used to be. Needless to say, we work really hard for us to able to provide the needs of our family. Indeed, as a human being all of us have different problems and obligations.

As a result, sad to say citizens become very frustrated and eventually such frustration and disappointments become the reason of depression and stress. Normally, depression leads to several effects, a person might suffer mental illness or worse, he or she becomes a criminal. There are actually cases that were reported involving people who suffered problem financially or emotionally.

People are naturally capable of loving, but the way we love differs from person to person. Our environment greatly affects our mood and our way of thinking. Indeed, our personality depends on the surroundings of our childhood. When a child grows up in an environment exposed to violence, such will most likely to become a criminal.

Considering that criminals do not choose any age and situation, still old people are at more risk than younger ones. As a matter of fact, robbery and scam are rampant to those who cannot fight. Children are common in kidnapping for ransom, and seniors are prone to robbery by stealth and scam.

That is why people with malicious intent tend to target the former. Sad to say but we cannot completely eradicate evil because such is always inside of every person. That is true that evils reside on us, we were born with a good and bad personalities, but it is up to us on how we manage ourselves.

Nevertheless, there is nothing to worry about, or at least we can still calm ourselves down because our government is trying their best to address this particular problem. We just have to trust them for after all it is the government in general who will get affected the most. However, let us not forget that sovereignty reside in the people, so even without the government, the community is the one who will carry all the burden if this problem will not be stopped.
