Well?....There was no mention in the court room scenes of criminal activity.

But...Let's say they were involved in serious crime, such as breaking and entering, why would any thinking parent want these kids in a regular prison-like school? Would you want your child forced into association with real criminals?

Does this make sense to you?

What the hell are you talking about prison-like school? They are habitual criminals and have to face the music. I’d say throw the book at these deadbeats. If I had a kid that was skipping school when he or she was supposed to be in school not only would they get an a$$beating I’d want the judge to teach them a lesson. Botton line though is I’m sure my kids would think twice before skipping school as my wrath would be worse than any judge.

At this point they ARE real criminals and their parents no longer have a say.
