How about a merit badge for real world problems like how to balance a checkbook, keep a marriage together when down to the last dollar, and how to raise nice, caring kids.

I was trying to be funny about "real-world" skills. I should have said "skills that people already have."

hi Miss C - I guess it was the word "skill" that I was concerned with - lighting a fire in the woods with no match deserves a merit badge. typing out your ego onto a blog does not. no skills needed there.
