What really worries me is that these generally seem like totally normal / polite / middle class kids, not "rough" ones, they more or less mind their own business and don't cause trouble. But when things kick off in town they don't look concerned or back off... If anything they seem to love it / thrive on it. Which I guess is a worrying indication of how used to it they are.
