[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. Instead Invest heavily in teachers, community centers and make sure there are free things for kids to do 24/7. Tutoring, sports, arts etc. some kids will opt in others will not. Increase juvenile detention and school discipline. [b]Remove problem kids to alternative schools. Don’t punish the good kids by rewarding the bad ones.[/b] [/quote] This will work better than wrap around services. I can't find the reference, but remember seeing that a small number of bad people actually commit most of the crimes. Leaving the bad people in their communities harms the good people who live there, and degrades the culture of the community as a whole. Get kids who commit violent crimes out. I guarantee you they terrorize smart kids and make it harder to excel in school. Break up the drunk/high loiterers on the street. They suppress the economic vitality of the neighborhood.[/quote]
