The answer is Option B: can create counter hostility on the part of the school.

Explanation:

Zero tolerance policies have been adopted in many school systems and they mandate either expulsion or referral of students to juvenile or criminal court for offenses. They do not consider the circumstances or nature of the offense or the personal or extenuating circumstances for the student like Emotional Behavioral Disorder. Critics have argued that many of the students who are punished under zero tolerance frameworks experience higher psychological and social costs as a result of being expelled or suspended and even arrested in some cases for what may be first time and minor offenses. Psychologists have found that adolescents in juvenile detention centers were frequently depressed and suffered feelings of social alienation from being persecuted by the school system and justice system.
