well we went to a army training centre and did lots of fun things like playing on a shooting rang doing an asult course which id did not get to do much off being the only femal leader and the only person who got and injury being a girl i had to stay with her and make sure she was okay which was dull but fine. we played lazor quest twice in three days (i went to leza quest on the weekend with Gordon and his young people which was rad) and did some team skills puzzels.
i don't know if i am altogether happy with what we did today though what message did we give the young people we took. ws it that it is cool to kill and play with gun is it that all we think they can acheive is to join the army is it that we are fine with vilance or a whole host of other things.
although i started to make some good realtionships with the young people from the Y today particualy the girls and those realtionships will have been spring borded by today i am not happy with what i think i have allowed myself to be party to. i have also shot myself in the foot as to standing up agenst this sort of things. this is hard where is my middle grond.
