It is obvious there is a big gap between a child raised in a public yard and the one raised in a self contained apartment. several reasons could be adduced for this.

1. Children who live in a public yard mostly live in a one or two rooms apartment with their parents and therefore witness the love making between their parents

2. Victims of Rape: They are the most abused and molested children because of the public use of things in the compound:

3. Pugnacious: They tend to develop an aggressive attitude due to the frequent fight that exist in their place of residence.

4. Lack of Respect: They don't have respect for elders. Due to the quarrels that exist among people living in a public yard, parents tend to give their children wrong advice on who to greet and who not to greet in the yard and this in turn affects their relationship with people outside.

5. Dirtiness This may not be always true but it is one of the characteristics of children who live in a public yard. Because they make use of things in common, they tend not to care much about how to keep things clean to the best of their ability example is the public toilet.

6. Early exposure to indecency: They are exposed to indecency at earlier age. This comes as a result of children entering into the rooms of their neighbours whom they share common interest with and as a result they got exposed earlier to indecency movies o

7. Vulnerable to Diseases: Children who are raised in a public yard are exposed to contagious diseases. This comes as a result of using the same facilities, having an unavoidable contact with their inmates or not keeping the environment clean.

8. Lack of Conducive atmosphere: Due to the noises that emanate from their yards, they are less likely to have the atmosphere to study their books rather they tend to play away their time

To me, there is no difference between a Public yard and your Self-contained apartment.
Afterall, there are some block of flats that are similar to Barracks

^^^ lilmax you're wrong. Av experienced the 2 sides of the coin. Op was spot on but that does not mean those raised in comfortable environs don't have their own challenges

Nah, lots of Difference!
A public yard is what I call a den of thieves, where even the incorruptible becomes. Vulnerable.

Op you are referring to face me I slap you kind of houses.well there's a whole lot of difference between the two however public yards are not environments to raise wholistic children. They usually turn sociopaths, aggressive, have personality issues and generally don't know how to comport themselves without being overbearing except for a few
