"The idea is that it's about teaching young people self-reliance and emotional well-being through fun and challenging activities. We try to reward young people for their achievements and their social and personal development"
i don't think i'm being challenged enough in my life!!!
actually, they could be onto something. i worked with a girl once and her parents took her everywhere. the first time she got a bus she missed her stop because she didn't realise you had to stand up or ring the bell to let the driver know you want to get off... she just thought the bus stopped at every stop! and she was quite well educated too (probably why she'd never caught a bus before!)
