Kid Nation episode 6

In this episode of kid nation, the new leaders of Bonanza city have to adjust to the conformity that council leaders are expected to act like. The other leaders expect them to get up early just like they do. The rest of each leaders district expect their new leaders to better help them. The new leaders seem to be adjusting well to the new expectations by already helping clan up the town. The expectations of the leaders are to listen to the districts and make the best decisions for the town.

There was informal organization when people came together to fill the water tank. The kids felt the obligation to help. Not all kids helped, but the ones that did realized that team work can accomplish almost anything. Although Taylor was supposed to fill the water tank, she had a fit and refused to. The other kids were annoyed with her but still accomplished the huge task of filling the tank.

There was a sensed of rationalization when the council recruited kids to clean out the trash. The trash was causing the town to stink. Due to the abundance of trash, the kids collected it in wagons. They then took the wagons and moved it far from the town. The trash was then buried in holes dug by the kids.

The kids had figures of authority. The authority were the council leaders.  They were voted for by their districts. They used their power to help direct the kids into the right direction and to better improve the town. Although the leaders had limited power within their positions, they still managed to use it appropriately.
