Oh don't worry, neither is the Brotherhood. The Agoge/Youth Martial Combatives Academy isn't a universal 'shall serve' institution. You're not obligated to send your kids there, but the overall zeitgeist and social paradigms has alot of kids going there regardless. Many families who've long since had warrior traditions see it as the regular to send your kid off to become a warrior.

Heck, in more modern settings, this can be diluted further in which we go full on anime-tier school weirdness in that CA has a cadre organized into the general population of students. Complete with absurdly powerful student councils, Hall Monitors are State Sec, and the amount of shit that gets pulled in this school would no doubt close it down in any reasonable system, but it all miraculously is fine with the teachers. Well, they are probably Mamono after all.

Now I have the funny idea that absolutely nobody wants to go to the Mindflayer Nurse and her wierd bubbly health concotions. She gives off way too much of a 'Cure for Wellness' creepy so most students, both human and Mamono agree to just try and fix shit themselves.
