It's not about forming a paramilitary squad of youngsters armed and trained to kill. It's about getting the feckless off their arses and giving them something useful to do that benefits society as a whole.

Turning them into good human beings if you like
Complete tosh.

If that’s what they want to do, Make people get off their arses and work in the community for their benefits/handouts.

Most ****agers I come across ARE good human beings. If it’s a case they aren’t, target them and give them community service, boot camps etc.

In schools:

Mechanic courses, plumbing, joinery, metalwork, cooking, gardening/landscaping etc.

Get some professionals teaching these skills in schools instead of the shyte they do teach.
