Only, the measure of what constitutes 'bad behavior' is inconsistent as heck. I had cerebral palsy and undiagnosed ADHD as a kid and was constantly being sent to the principles office for simply 'spacing out' and getting distracted. I would have been royally screwed if I had been diverted to a school for kids with behavioral problems. Eventually I got glasses, got medicated, and thrived, but there were a lot of people who wanted to write me off without giving me a chance.
