'For many kids, misbehaving can be part of normal development. Adolescence is a time of complex social,emotional, cognitive, and physical development: tna In figuring out who they are and how they want to behave in life, kids often engage in so-called teenage rebellion: exploratory, risk-taking behaviors that help teens assess social, personal, and familial boundaries: This period of life is also marked by higher impulsivity and susceptibility to peer pressure, leading many Source: teenagers to engage in acts that Just Kids, Vera: can be of concern to adults_

@thetinmen @thetinmen Dinah Campbell, whose son was detained for seven months Despite what those children are put in that building for; whatever they did to make them have to go there, they are still human beings and they get treated less than that: They are treated like animals: It's essentially solitary confinement_ To do it as a common practice to get through the day, is doubling down on the trauma that many of these young people experience.

To look into the American prison system, is to look into a black hole of hopelessness. A place where sexual abuse is normalized, self harm, addiction, and neglect rife, and violence a daily reality. ‘R*pe culture’ is a term often thrown around in the media, and when it comes to prisons in America, where men have silently experienced more than 900,000 instances of sexual violence, such a term could not be more fitting. And yet, despite such a system and the untold immiseration and industrial-scale abuse of its inmates; there is still, somehow, something and somewhere even worse… And that is the American system of prisons and detention centers for juveniles. A series of ‘correctional facilities’, where nearly 40,000 children are sent annually, to meet a level of abuse and neglect, that will blow your mind and break your heart, that is not dissimilar to those experienced in adult prisons. But these are not ‘correctional facilities’, and these children are not ‘clients’, they are prisons for kids, and a crime against humanity, at a systemic, state sponsored level. So what heinous acts must these children have committed to deserve such a fate? Well… not much. Stealing chewing gum. Trespassing on school grounds to retrieve a lost football. Throwing a paper airplane. Drawing on a desk. Hiding a teacher’s purse. Actions that struggle even be called misbehavior, let alone a crime deserving of prolonged and institutionalized abuse. And so, who will speak of the crimes and trauma inflicted upon these children? Who will talk of the squalid, hell-like prisons they are held in? And who will expose the corrupt system, and individuals who put them there?
