Description

In the first passage about restorative justice, there is an anecdote about a boy touching his classmates inappropriately. He has a talking circle with the girls he affected and a counselor, and they are able to come to a resolution. The word rape is mentioned in passing in the contexts of crime statistics and the myth of the "super-predator."
