This is a hard question to answer definitively because there are many factors that contribute to delinquency. I wonder if there is a specific answer in your text that your teacher expects you to find.
Overall, it seems as if the academic consensus is that divorce, per se, is not what causes juveniles to be delinquent. Instead, there are all sorts of other problems that go along with divorce but are not caused by the divorce. For example, look at this link. It talks about how marital discord is more important than divorce. In other words, a bad marriage is no better than a broken home.
