So I'm clueless, huh? What does that make you? Downright moronic I guess...
In case your not abreast of the news, a SECOND "Brat Camper" was arrested on very serious charges. That's two down, seven to go, and the show HASN'T EVEN FINISHED AIRING YET.
Let's assume for a moment, that it won't get any worse than it already is (although I have the sincerest doubts about that).
If the program told you, up front, that they reasonably expect that 25% of program graduates will be arrested for serious crimes within mere weeks of completing the program, would you still have sent your kid there?
I would wager that you would, because if your kid spent six months in a wilderness camp and you knew they'd be in jail for some time afterward, that would be the perfect scenario for a responsibilty-abdicating, abject failure of a parent.
You'd probably testify against your own kid to "hold him accountable," i.e. continue your vacation from parenting...
As an aside, what could be MORE PERFECT than being the most powerful man on the planet AND getting blown at work? Isn't that sort of the definition of perfect?? :nworthy:
