    When you've been inside an institution for a while you become institutionalized, which means when you get out of these groups, be it jail, or home for children, any place where you live in a group envirement , then you are released, you will basically try and do anything you can to be placed back in that situation, It happened to me as a teen ager, I was in one Orphanage and one Girls Home, when I finally turned of age I was released. I wanted to go back, I felt safe, but I was too old and had to chage my way of thinking or I would have ended in prison
