Hold on.. The young ones have more things than the older its just that they arent encouraged by their parents to join the clubs that exist.
With Brownies, dancing , after school club, french club, Blackfish - we are running a constant taxi service for Victoria. You always can find something to get involved in but it is the problem that belonging to a club means you have to be responsible and disciplined in attending and we are losing that. I would sooner my children went to some organised event than sitting on street corners complaining that there is nothing to do!!!
There are many sport clubs, church clubs and cadet forces and water sports in this town and dont give me the fact that they cost - they are less money than some kids spend on clothes and drink.
