Teens are experts at terrorizing their parents as well. <g>

One of the biggest jobs we have in front of us for this topic of 'torture' is to separate conduct that is objectionable and offensive but not torture from the concept of 'Interrogative Torture.' There are also many things that are done to confined prisoners to deliberately induce stress in hopes of getting them to talk but don't fall under the classic definitions of torture.

I could tell from the public debates that America isn't really ready to deal with this topic. IMO the winning candidate will be the one that handles the topic of torture well.
