I think sending these people to live in Haiti for a year would do wonders to clear things up.
Excellent therapeutic idea.
Yup. Something that did wonders for me was all the backpacking I did in my teens and 20s.
Surviving in atrocious weather and running out of food and water (thankfully not all at the same time) did a lot to help me appreciate the comforts we so take for granted.
I've often thought that the Outward Bound and similar programs, if extended to perhaps half a year to a year, would do wonders for whiny yutes.
As boot camp often does.
