[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teens going on “service trips” are complete bullshit. Colleges see through then too. He might as well bring her home. No one is learning anything by making her sit there doing nothing for another few days. (Teens should not be doing “habitat” type work. They have no actual skills and slow down work or do it sloppy and cost more time and money. Underserved communities and people would be much better served with direct grants that put local people to work or actual professionals donating their time. Kids and church families doing service is just to make themselves feel good and is disgusting.)[/quote] It is a pointless resume stuffer. Might as well come home. She could be learning the complete wrong lesson anyway: it’s ok to stay in a not working and pointless situation no matter what. [/quote]
