this is sick
Taking away priviledges, etc. are ways
The idea of parenting is that you love your kids and you don't want them to do anything that could hurt them or anyone else. (IMO) You're not trying to force them to behave just because you can't handle them, you are trying to teach them to become the best people they can. I don't see how brutality of this sort is going to help the child, or society, in any way.

My cousin was sent to a place in New Mexico because his parents found out he was doing drugs. He just got out a month ago after being there for a year. I thought it was pretty stupid because teens will be teens and they will learn one way or another what drugs will do to them. I don't think my cousin deserved to go away from home and away from his family and friends just because he was doing drugs.

Life is waiting for you it's all messed up but were alive. Life is waiting for you it's all messed up but we'll survive.
And if the rebellious teen is question becomes violent and poses a threat to the parents? What if th teen never comes home and the parents never know where he/she is? I think you underestimate the severity of some of these teens problems.

I felt it in the wind, and i saw it in the sky, i thought it was the end, i thought it was the 4th of July.
