No, I don't run into kids. I changed jobs cause counseling was way too hard. But have I worked with "at-risk" teenagers on a daily basis 10 hours a day for an extended period of time, yes. So when you say these girls don't have any values, I will ask you what you mean by that. I specifically worked with teenage women who met the poverty guidelines. Being a brother in a suit going to the hood and out to the farms wasn't easy.

All the pie in the sky ideas I hear cats talk about don't translate when you're in the trenches.
