If this is the way schools are going, I need to learn how to homeschool in case I have kids!!

So, turns out some teachers are actively trying to keep kids from developing best friend relationships.

As the calendar moves into summer, efforts to manage friendships don’t stop with the closing of school. In recent years Timber Lake Camp, a co-ed sleep-away camp in Phoenicia, N.Y., has started employing “friendship coaches” to work with campers to help every child become friends with everyone else. If two children seem to be too focused on each other, the camp will make sure to put them on different sports teams, seat them at different ends of the dining table or, perhaps, have a counselor invite one of them to participate in an activity with another child whom they haven’t yet gotten to know.

Review: Darkwing Duck comic book, issue one

I've been eagerly anticipating this release and it was well worth the wait. I HIGHLY reccommend picking this up if you loved Darkwing, the Disney Afternoon, or just love good clean fun superhero stories (which are sadly rare now that "dark and gritty" is all the rage).



( Mild spoilers under the cut )

I really hope this series sells tons of copies and convinces Disney to let Boom Comics adapt other Disney Afternoon shows (mainly the totally awesome and woefully underrated Talespin) or even pick up the Gargoyles series that SLG didn't know what to do with.
