Reality School

Screw reality TV.  Kids seem to love it, so why not "Reality School" instead?

I was sharing with my husband the story of the breeding rituals in the world we've created (see Blah, Blah, Blah) and how the experience made Kelly never want to breed dogs for a living or a hobby or anything else.  So far we've succeeded in her not wanting to have babies (she witnessed the birth of her brother as she wanted and YES we did get her prepared for it), we succeeded in de-romanticizing the notion of breeding of cute, little, slimy puppies, so the next step, I told him, would be to take her to some hospital were they run detox programs for drug addicts.  Live and learn, I say.  He mentioned that his uncle worked in a detox place and he wished they would bring High School kids by for a field trip to get them to never do drugs, as he believed this would work wonders.

After seeing what reality school has done for Kelly, I wholeheartedly agree.  I wonder why schools don't do this, and if anyone out there reads this and has an answer, please let me know what it is.

This idea is really taking off in my head.  I think I'll go on the web and find places where Kelly and I can do real charity work.  I mean get down and dirty into it.

That should help us all, me included..
