Seems kind of pointless...

I mean I like the concept of the show but I don't know how successful it is...

I mean you usually have 2 kinds of kids... One that is really angry/hurt about something, goes to jail, gets yelled at and starts crying. Usually these kids end up getting their life together after the show.

Then you have...

The spoiled brats that come on, bragging about never listening to their parents and not caring about any consequences... Usually these kids are getting yelled at by the inmates/ C.O.s they have a smirk on their faces b/c they know that the inmates/CO's can't touch them. These ones usually don't change too much afterwards.

I think they should be put in jail "for real" for a little while.
