Answer:

D) are under eighteen years of age and who commit acts that would not be considered crimes if they were committed by adults.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the eyes of the law, a juvenile or a minor is any person under the legal adult age. This age varies from state to state, but in most states, the legal age of the majority is 18. CREDIT: Criminal.findlaw

A juvenile is said to be "unruly" when he or she will not follow the rules of home, school, or community and as a result, is subjected to penalties imposed by the Court. CREDIT: Co.hancock.oh.us
