I found this posted on another social networking site and found it worthwhile to share. The article is about rehabilitating teen offenders instead of shutting them away in adult prisons. This quote really struck a cord with me: "When you walk into these facilities and see 17- and 18-year-olds with dolls on their pillows, that's when it hits you: 'Hey, these really are just kids,'" says Ned Loughran, executive director of the Council of Juvenile Correctional Administrators.
