%X Delinquents and offenders use games as defense mechanisms to avoid anxiety, as well as to avoid responsibility and accountability for their behavior. I present 20 examples of these games as an impetus for discussion of negative attitudes and behaviors seen among delinquents, and to make some suggestions regarding what we can do to redirect and help them to take responsibility for their behavior.<p />
