K's feedback:

"You have clearly defined your purpose, and provide adequate support for your evaluation of Agnew's General Strain Theory. However, you could further strengthen this paper by providing a further critique of the theory. For example, there are delinquent youth who come from "good/healthy" families: how would Agnew's theory apply/not apply? Please also create a separate concluding paragraph that includes a brief summary of the key points in the paper. There are some grammar issues and typos that should be addressed before submission. For example, please remove the "g" from "... situations g commit delinquent..."."
