Isn't that what Harvey said? You gotta give 'em hope. That's the first part, the most important part. They can figure out how to deal with their realities once they've survived long enough to ascertain what those are. It's kind of a triage situation, in my opinion. You fix the places where the patient is about to bleed out first and -then- you worry about the rest. I'm all about anything that keeps these kids from hurting themselves while they grow into the person they'll be. 'Course I'm all about pushing hope on just about everyone these days too. ;) In a bitter and cynical world, it's the ultimate rebellious act.
