    "content": "failed. When we were growing up, the larger society would control or socialise us by correcting us. Currently, with individualism, children are left on their own and that is why they have problems in schools. Some of the problems are basic. Children who get arrested are getting involved in those practices to simply seek attention. As a child grows up, they seek attention. They may have something to express, but they may not have someone to express it to. The parent or teacher may not be there. How else can they express what they have? How else can they demonstrate that they exist? So, some of them get involved in crime. We also know that children are naturally inclined to disobey authority. So, it is punitive for us to take them to prison. I support the Motion strongly because I believe that when we had approved schools, we never used to see the burning of schools. Now that they are not there, we have our children committing crimes. They are socialised right from baby class to be criminals and it explodes in burning of schools and then we take them to prison. If we are not careful, our prisons will be full of children under 18 years."
