I completely agree. There is nothing healthy about learning social skills from teenagers, who learnt it from teenagers, who learnt it from teenagers. What they need to learn is how to talk to and behave around adults. Earn their respect and be introduced intro adult groups. It's how we're evolved and its how society worked for millennia. Older kids looking after and supervising the youngins, develops skills for motherhood. The boys gradually being welcomed along to adult work, as apprentices, and learning to behave and socialise in the way that they'll need to do for the rest of their lives, with other men, and earning their respect. From tribal groups to apprenticeships, its never teens just learning from other teens. That's retarded.
