Scared straight

I wasn't talking about the average teen who breaks the law and pays for their crime and grows up to be a decent human being . I was talking about the evil ones who could be sent to jail over and over again never will learn the lessen.

Yeah okay that helps. But jail is different then prison we are talkig about prison. Prison is more then a year and the kids on the show are the ones that would go in for more then a year. Jail is short time like stealing certain things. Or drunk driving with no one hurt.

I don't think yet are evil misguided sure. A lot of kids are easily influences by other kids and adults around them. What they see they do but it doesn't mean they are getting it from there parents. Smart or not has nohing to do with behavior. I don't see a kid as evil if they do something stupid and end up in jail jail is short seances prison you there for a year or more. I don't see then as evil we all do evil things then from saying names to doing dangerous things that might not only change there life but others.

I agree. Yeah a lot of people as well as young adults that break the law are more likely to break the law again and again. Its some times a cycle that never ends.

I agree some things never work fo some kids. Going to perison and seeing it can be enough for a lot of kids and for some going through the actions of making a mistake that can't be taken back and paying the price for it teaches them. Even then some will always stay in prison and keep doing things the wrong way.

Agree and that's when I think the parents need to help out more by showing them what is a good influences and what is good behave and not good behavior. I know some parents have a hard time putting there foot down.

I have to disagree with as a parent already. Some times you have to put your child in places or sistuations that you don't want to them to be in but it does teach them for the most part that you do things like your doing and keep doing them even when help had been give. You can give certain people all the help and attention in the world but that doesn't stop the behavior what does is the person themselves not wanting to further hurt themselves or there parents. You never as a parent want to see your kid doing things that you don't want them to do. You don't want seem them doing bad things that can over time and will get them in jail or prison or even worse killed. So some times scaring your child is saving them in the end. Its like telling a child not to do something and having someone talk to them or even you talking to them and spending time with them doesn't fix things. You can want your child to be better you can want your child not to get hurt or do bad things. You can want a lot of things for them but that doesn't mean they won't do something that you don't like and that doesn't mean all the help in the world will change them. When then go they aren't left there over night its a few hours with an officer in the room with them at all times. These are inmates wanting to help these kids not end up in the same way they are in the same places so yeah they are going to treat them badly but not hurt them physically just talk to them in a way that no one else will understand besides them. One bad thing in your life can not only change your child's life but the lives around them.
