Personally, I
discourage sinkies from jumping ship. For those not inclined on hunting, scouting and have a low set of survival skill.. Stepping out into the jungle could be a big blow to them... hence, it will be better for them to stay in an enclosed space and wait for instruction
Street smart and assertiveness cannot be achieved via SG teaching.. or NS training. Swim in the wild & experience counts.. also include the "big balls" to gamble your way out of danger..
When I was in my Uni days.. Knn.. I hunt for mattress/furniture.. trailer.. and transport myself just to save some pennies. Now driving a trailer on a reverse mode is juz a breeze
as time passed... my balls became bigger (heehee) and my heart became hungrier.. challenging the odds becomes a norm..
IMHO.. if you don't fall, you cant learn to walk & run. We are on a running phase now.. those started crawling need to catch up
