Tick. Tock. In less than 5 hours, the finale for “Kid Nation” airs. We here at aPARENTly Speaking consider this a momentous event. Yes, our boredom is nearing the end. OK, seriously, we’re actually expecting a lot from the finale. Maybe that’s simple hope. Or maybe we’d just like to think we didn’t invest a full season in this show for nothing.

So, to mark the occasion, fellow blogger Ari Soglin and I will chime in with our thoughts LIVE on the blog tonight. Join us at 8 p.m. Tell us what you think in the comments. We’d love to know we’re not in this alone.
