Here, silly refers to the preposterous treatment of juveniles inside these institutions. Juvenile delinquency is termed as an inconsiderate behavior by a minor, especially behavior that would be unlawfully carrying a punishment, if the actor were an adult, but instead is usually penalized by special laws pertaining only to minors.
