I don't know anything about this treatment center. Supposedly, it is $450,000 per year. That could mean it's very pleasant or very unpleasant. It looks nice enough, though I'm unsure what the curriculum would be.

Oh fun (sarcasm)!!!!!!! So you understand this isn't about age and prefrontal cortex. Most teens and adults would prefer even a harsh treatment center and 10 years probation over 3 years in a detention or incarceration facility.
The system should be focused on rehabilitation no matter the wealth of the child's parents. In a perfect world every kid gets $450,000 year treatment centers. This is an imperfect world though.
