That will kill the program.

Let's hope so!. The program had always been sexist, as we all know children male and female need a male perspective in their lives, however in most cases with female children in need , the guardian, or custodial parent is almost always a female. BBBS will only provide a big SISTER for these girls, and thus the child gets no male perspective whatsoever.

RE:That will kill the program.
 
You can say that again.
picture a few kids standing around as the Big Brother coordinator hands out the assignment cards:
1st Kid (reads his card):"Kewl beans! this guy's a pilot. I get flying lessons on the weekends"
2nd Kid (also reads card):"Awsome! this guys a pit mechanic at the Race Track! Free pit pass!"
3rd Kid: "Mine says he's quality tester at the local fireworks factory- Hell yes!"
The 4th kid stares at his card, at first in befuddled incomprehension, then disgust.
Other kids: "What's up so who'd you draw?"
4th Kid: "a fricking chutney ferret. juuuuust peachy."

No it won't. The program will get more money than ever. It will just f^&* up these poor innocents.

Come quickly, Lord.
