    To me the examples you listed would just fall under “education”. The term “re-education” heavily implies imprisonment and forced brain washing.

      If the condition of parole is successfully completing substance abuse treatment, isn’t that a forced–or heavily coerced–brain washing? If it isn’t, then what’s the bright line between them?
