solitary confinement

this is just one long reading material regarding human needs of social interaction and it's effect for lack thereof. erratic behaviour were found in those who don't get along well with people and were locked up in prison's solitary cells.this solitary cells did nothing but harm to the inmates.as a person who deprived of social interaction then he would develop pyhschotic behaviour that had detrimental effect upon that person himself.there's need to be applied a more gentle approach when dealing with criminals other than solitary confinement.
but hell, if the person is a murderer then I guess locking him/her up in a solitary cell is for everyone's benefits

in reference to:

"We are social in a more elemental way: simply to exist as a normal human being requires interaction with other people."
