My understanding is that juvenile prisons have not been evidenced in decreasing the amount of crime?

Generally my understanding is that children who severely misbehave is actually an indication of neglect, abuse, or something else seriously wrong with the environment that the child cannot escape.




If that's the case then it's too bad. Better for them to be in juvenile prison than stealing from or assaulting students and teachers.
