the system wasn't working. He was a young man – just a boy, really – and Newton, 
then a police officer for London's Metropolitan force, had arrested him nearly 
30 times.

want from life?' and 'What do you think you can give to society?'. I didn't 
realise it at the time, but I had already started life-coaching."</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-wellbeing/features/how-to-tame-a-teenage-tearaway-870510.html">Teenagers have never been particularly easy but right now they seem out of
