I have always thought that hell would remind me of Junior High School. It is a horrible age and a horrible existence. The injection of hormornes in crowded circumstance can truly be a hellish experience.

We were too scared of being knifed to worry about all the drama. It was the first year of court-ordered busing. We were just happy to survive. We moved to the mountains to put our kids in school. Our kids just complain about the drama. Music to my ears.
Prisons are likely just as socially hellish. In many ways government schoools and prisons are very similar.
What is regarded as “normal” for pre-teens and teens is really social pathology. If we treat children ( who have committed no crime) like prisoners is it any wonder we see behavior commonly seen in prisons?
Yet...When a child ( who has committed no crime) **rationally** rebels and refuses to attend, we send out armed police and sentence him to hard time prison ( juvenile detention).
If we treat kids in a bizarro manner it is no wonder they behave bizarrely.
