Kids being kids?

I despise this sort of Lord of the Flies behavior. I know that Andover and Exeter have mostly wonderful, kind students. But these schools particularly, where so much is made of their greatness (rightly or wrongly), are greenhouses for entitled, self-important kids. Personally, I think it partially relates to the values of the schools, values which seem less about turning out good human beings and more about producing high scoring, high achieving kids with sharp elbows.
