| May 24, 2015 at 8:16 | comment | added | Tylah | @Catija, DavidPugh and WS2. Thank you all for your comments and suggestions. I apologise for the ocnfusion - I chopped the sentence a bit to focus on the part I wanted help with. I was meaning 'the fact that' as Catija said but the overall point was that how restorative justice helps to overcome obstacles such as a young person's reluctance or the way in which youth's (in general) opinions are overlooked. :) | |
| May 24, 2015 at 8:08 | comment | added | WS2 | @Catija Both you and David Pugh make relevant points. It seems to me that the writer is trying to say that it is their reluctance to seek redress that causes youth not to be taken seriously. In which case the sentence needs changing altogether. | |
| May 24, 2015 at 7:45 | comment | added | Catija | @DavidPugh I think (but am not sure) that, in this case, "that" means "the fact that". | |
| May 24, 2015 at 7:39 | comment | added | David Pugh | Also, what is the "that" doing before youth?If the whole shebang is reporting of what someone else argues, with the main verb in the preceding sentence, surely there should be a "that" before a young person too? | |

| May 24, 2015 at 7:29 | comment | added | Catija | Other than this one issue, do you consider the sentence to be grammatical? Because, to me it seems confusing.... for example, should it not be "... their words are often not repeated..."? I'm also struggling a bit with the singular "young person" and plural "youth"... | |
