In India, there are specialized schools for training young thieves. 🏫 Three villages in Madhya Pradesh enroll children as young as 12-13 years old for "professional training." The curriculum includes both theoretical lectures and real-world practice with industry "gurus." 📚 The training program covers pickpocketing, snatching bags in crowded places, evading the police, and resisting beatings. 👜🚔 The children are also taught how to gamble and sell alcohol. 🎲🍾 A spot in the "thieves' school" costs parents between 200,000–300,000 rupees (approximately $2,400–$3,600 USD) in tuition fees. 💵

This is a serious issue. It’s like a dark side of the socioeconomic divide where kids are taught crime as a profession. The amounts parents are paying show how desperate they are, but it’s tragic that their children are being groomed for a life of crime instead of given a chance at a better future. We need systemic change and better social programs to address these issues head-on.

This is absolutely horrifying. It’s not just about the illegal activities they’re teaching but also the exploitation of vulnerable children. The fact that these so-called ‘schools’ exist and parents are willing to pay so much for their kids to learn crime is a serious indictment of our social safety nets.

. The fact that parents are paying such a hefty sum for this is mind-boggling and just shows how deep the cycle of crime and poverty can be. We need to focus on education and real job opportunities to break this cycle
