       This topic struck my interest because this is something you kind of like see on a day to day basis especially in many public schools whether it’s a middle school or high school. There are many young individuals that have lost sight in what’s right and just loose interest or care in making a better life for themselves due to their home environment. A lot of them have nobody to talk to, cry to or have anyone who’s willing to listen to them and understand their story. So to see that some schools have this Restorative justice program kind of shows that there are a few individuals who have not given up and who do care about the lives of the young people especially minorities who aren’t as well off as others may be. This should definitely be more widely reported to the public because this is like an ongoing problem. Many of our young people are looking for people to talk to and or confide in because 9/10 they probably won't have anybody in the household willing to just sit down and listen, not because they don't want to but because of their busy schedules. Also, being that they're in school basically all day and having this restorative justice program put in to place, they have more opportunity where they can find  actual guidance and learn to better themselves as they begin building their future.
