        <description>Oh sweet justice, it appears that the town-council members can be replaced, and with the way in which little Taylor has been throwing her weight around, something tells me there may be change in the air. This is a good lesson for Taylor to learn because she obviously hasn&amp;rsquo;t heard the saying &amp;ldquo;the fingers you step on, on your way up, will be the hands that pull you on your way down,&amp;rdquo; or something like that. This is one hardheaded girl, because even after being called out in the past two town council meetings, she continues to bark orders at the rest of the kids. She has to be an only child or the oldest one in her family, because anybody with an older sibling would get the snot kicked out of him or her for treating people they way she does. Not that I&amp;rsquo;m encouraging snot kicking, I&amp;rsquo;m just saying you learn really fast what not to say, when you have an older brother or sister around to check you on it. But everything comes in good time, because now Taylor has 38 other kids to teach her the ways in which to get along positively in the world. Or at the very least, she will learn a lesson in humility, which appears to be sorely lacking in her DNA.

But Taylor isn&amp;rsquo;t the only town-council member in fear of losing their position. All four of the kids in charge are second-guessing the decisions they&amp;rsquo;ve been making, and how the rest of the town feels about them. Many people claim they don&amp;rsquo;t want that kind of power and control, but just try and take it away and you&amp;rsquo;ll see how fast their true feelings emerge. That being said, they other three council members have done a fairly good job of running the place. Sure the kids didn&amp;rsquo;t appreciate being told how their religious services were going to be run, in last week&amp;rsquo;s episode, nor did they enjoy being put on a 9 p.m. curfew, but all tings considered, I think they&amp;rsquo;re doing as good a job as can be expected of children so young. That doesn&amp;rsquo;t mean the town couldn&amp;rsquo;t stand for a changing of the guard though, and considering the fact that this should be a learning experience for each of the kids, maybe a shift in leadership is best for everybody. I know I would certainly want my child to get a taste of running things, if I were ever stupid enough to allow him or her to be left to fend for themselves in a ghost town.</description>
