Summerhill, Suffolk, UK

Notwithstanding my subtle enthusiasms for liberty and freedom, I would spend maybe fifteen minutes in this looney bin before I went over the wall. 

When I was a teenage chap, the last thing I wanted was to associate with adults who considered themselves my "equals." Indeed, the school's fundamental pedagogical principle flies in the face of common sense and anthropological science, in my humble opinion. Ugh, and I have been through that private school ordeal of calling teachers by their first names; or even worse, calling teachers by soppy-sounding nick names.

So much for the "oldest children's democracy in the world."
