Hey Bo

That makes it harder to give guidance and encourage hardwork for true "needs" rather than "want, want want".

When I was a kid I could cut lawns, deliver papers, shovel snow, do odd jobs ect. I did it all to earn the cash so I could get what I wanted. This day and age on Long Island you can't deliver papers or cut lawns, the adults have those jobs and if you shovel you run the risk of getting robbed. It is so hard for a kid 12-13 years old to find a job when it really matters. When you first WANT to work. When you start young you learn to listen to people and get a real look at what it takes to make a buck. I know plenty of people who feel the same way and desperately look for something, a job, camp, anything to teach their kids outside the house what it's like in the real world. The only way you learn a work ethic is by working.
