Unexpected preemie news

Although your pre-term baby may be a handful as a child, with behavior problems and difficulty in school, a new study shows that preemies are actually less likely to actually turn criminal.

The article I linked above is very confusing to me, since it seems to contradict itself several times. My decision to actually post something about this stemmed from the notes at the bottom of the article, where ways to decrease the risk of popping out a preemie are discussed. Um, if a baby born preemie is less likely to land in the slammer, wouldn't that mean having a preemie is a good thing?
