Boy's Town


Have you even seen this movie? I haven't even heard of it until yesterday, watched it tonight, and am blown-away! 

It's a black & white movie that tells the story of a priest who believes that there is no bad boy and starts this amazing home for the homeless youth and made the youth residences living there the care keepers, the owners of the property. They elected an mayor, grew their own food, had their own barber, printed their own magazines, and washed their own clothes. 

Well, this seems incredible to me! The town is still around, they do things differently now. They place kids in families groups, each group 6-8 kids to 2 adults (a couple) instead of having one huge dorm with massive amounts of kids governing  themselves. They have "boys town" cities all across the U.S. now, not just in this town outside of Omaha as well. 

Anyway, this excites me. I would love to be apart of this, or something like this. I have for a long time, but didn't know they really existed. I wonder and hope that something like this will be in me and Skip's future someday! 

Check out this movie! It's so good!
