I almost wish I had a son in HS today. Plenty of these young guys are beyond fed up with the crap thats forced on them. I could easily see plenty of modern Eddie Haskel types and their likeminded fathers having an absolute ball turning this circus into a historical extravingaza of Biblical proportions. Which is what should happen.
People can say ‘you can’t use children like that”. My reply to that is “My your chains weigh -heavily- upon you.” HS guys are not ‘children’ to begin with. And I’d look at it as them taking a proactive role in their future.
Funny that an 18 year old led entire armies a couple times in history. I think it could happen again on a far smaller scale.
My reply to that is My your chains weigh -heavily- upon you.
...OK...so whose chains are weighing heavily upon me...mine or yours...?
