Boot camps can be used to help curve non-violent behavior but I don't think it can stop it. These institutions in my opinion will lose their credibility in the future because if you look at our own armed forces boot camps, every ten years they get more and more lient on the recruits. If these juvenile institutions are supposed to mirror the military boot camps, how effective do you expect these institutions to be in the future? Another thing I believe is that if we spent more time educating the parent we could reduce juvenile delinquency just as fast as these institutions are being built. The one thing about boot camp that I can attest to is that once you graduate you will never be the same....
