You already know the answer to this, you just don't like it. Running the data through again will not change it.

“When one individual inflicts bodily injury upon another such that death results, we call the deed manslaughter; when the assailant knew in advance that the injury would be fatal, we call his deed murder. But when society places hundreds of proletarians in such a position that they inevitably meet a too early and an unnatural death, one which is quite as much a death by violence as that by the sword or bullet; when it deprives thousands of the necessaries of life, places them under conditions in which they cannot live – forces them, through the strong arm of the law, to remain in such conditions until that death ensues which is the inevitable consequence – knows that these thousands of victims must perish, and yet permits these conditions to remain, its deed is murder just as surely as the deed of the single individual; disguised, malicious murder, murder against which none can defend himself, which does not seem what it is, because no man sees the murderer, because the death of the victim seems a natural one, since the offence is more one of omission than of commission. But murder it remains.”

Hell, maybe the whole “selfishness” stereotype that comes with the ageist interpretation of teenagers is artificially created by adults refusing to let them learn about the outside world in a safe and controlled manner. Adults even cover up issues other minors are facing. It’s a wonder that teenagers are able to consistently practice empathy and sympathy for problems they’re never actually told in full about at all.
