[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's a fantasy I've had for a while:

Establish a working farm, far outside the city, for urban youth who have gotten in trouble with the law. Budding gang members and the like. Have them work on the farm and do rigorous schoolwork, under the supervision of firm but loving caretakers. Teach good manners, good decision-making, and hard work. Feed them excellent food and organize team sports. I'd probably have to have several of these, in order to break existing associations and prevent the formation of new mini-crews. And of course, there would be partnerships with companies and agencies in the city, so that when the kids complete their stint on the farm, they have mentors and eventually jobs to return to.

This actually existed, in a sense, where I grew up. Lots of the boys from The Farm turned out amazingly well. [/quote]

Love your idea.  You should actually do this.  I am  sure you could get funding.  If I were a billionaire I would give you unlimited resources.  [/quote]
