Those of you over age 35 may remember a 1970s youth program called “Scared Straight.”
The idea of the program was that, by sending delinquent youths on a prison tour to meet violent, foul-mouthed prisoners in hellish surroundings, the teen-agers would be “scared straight” and become model students. Videos of these raw encounters were periodically shown on TV and in high schools, in the hope that other youths would be scared straight, too.
