No no no. Just ask their mothers to have a word with them. That's
all.
If that fails then you organise bullfights, and the worst of the mad
young men with not enough sense will happily throw themselves into the
path of a pair of rampaging horns. If they survive then they get the
attention they crave, and if they don't.... oh well. They died
hero's.
I didn't agree with bullfights when I first got to Spain. My
sensibilities were somewhat shocked by it all. But now I can see it
fulfills a useful social function. It's just not necessary to repress
reckless young men. You just have to direct those energies in a
useful and entertaining way for all. As I recall, the Tibetans used
to have a few ways of doing that.... throwing themselves off mountains
inside of kites. Ceremonial fights on small horses during festivals
etc.
