if they are unable to self-regulate, then jailing them at home and school is definitely not a solution for that.

I think you're responding to an argument I didn't make. And I feel necessary to point it out because it looks like other people may be reading it like that, too.

I read it in the same way. What did you mean instead?

		I mean what I wrote, nothing more. (a) Quote from TFA is about using internet. GP talks about "didn’t have any freedom or autonomy" which I don't take quite as literally as you do, because they also mention "I saw this a lot in college". So it would have been quite regular level of (over)controlling, instead of locking them in and not letting them leave the house except for school. (b) I am not advocating anything as a solution. I am pointing out that the simple cause and effect presented by GP might be more complicated.
