#3Slightly off topic but I would like to mention that if you play chess online, the best one is lichess.org.
It is free and opensource: https://github.com/ornicar/lila.
I am unaffiliated but really like lichess.

#5"Every move has consequences" - That is absolutely brilliant! Is there any better way to explain such an abstract life concept to kids who can't see the consequences of whatever they do?

#8> In life, like chess, every move has a consequence.
This is all pretty hyperbolic post-hoc reasoning.
My guess is that against the alternative of juveniles just sitting in a cell and being neglected any program that stimulates them, invests time and effort into them, and gets them passionate is going to have promising results.
disclaimer: I think this is a great result, and should be promoted but the pseudo-scientific explanations just get to me...

At the wake of all these concerns around video games, I am gonna risk it still and say Video Games.
It teaches a lot about consequences. Perhaps not on par with chess, because, most popular games demands much less exercise in deliberation and strategic(/critical?) thinking.
