· Why are some kids magnets for bullying?· Why do gay teens commit suicide four times as frequently as "straight" teens?· Why do we have more men and women in prison than any other country in the world?· Why are school shootings and acts of domestic terrorism on the rise?What could possibly be the theme that ties all of these questions together, which provides a window into so many aspects of the darker aspects of human behavior? In a word, shame.
