Really?! I guess we got different samples. I don't recall many/any ethnic based stuff, olice intervention and I don't even know of anyone who went to juvie.. or even to court. I do know some kids who went to pnimiya over this kind of thing... but that was parents not authorities.
Same years, 5km apart, different experiences. ...Maybe just a different recollection of the experiences.
we probably misunderstood one each other - i though that you wrote that you had fights in raanana :)
in general it was totally peaceful in netanya, no "testosterone measurements" with exception of couple of big fights that did get police involvement
I did. There were fights around that age, middle school. I just noted that repercussions were mild at the time. I definitely don't remember police involvement in kid affairs until high school, and even then it wasn't about violence.
well, those couple of fights that i talk about, were massive. kids from other schools in city arrived in following days "to show presence". so there were some police. (i am describing high school, grades 9-12).
but in daily life, there were no fights that I remember.
