Not all kids are wired the same. Some kids you can talk shyt out and they get it and don't do it again and others will keep doing shyt cause talking ain't getting to them. Sometimes kids react to ass whoopings than talking shyt out, especially with how their friends act as well, if they see their friends getting away with stuff, then they will try the same shyt thinking it's cool to do.
I wish you could save all kids from being idiots and dumb asses but you can't, kids are gonna do what kids want to do. As much as it's up to the parents to instill discipline into them and teach them right from wrong, it's up to the kid to take what the parent is trying to teach them and grow from that. If the parent ain't raising the kid, then it's a crap shoot and it's up to the kid and other family, friends, or somebody to help that kid get out of his situation and help him grow.
I grew up around kids from both sides of the tracks, cause my mom didn't want me hanging with my friends cause some most of my friends were troublemakers, some weren't but a lot of them were, so she sent me to a private school cause the middle school I was going to wasn't teaching me shyt and the school was shyt and my mom wanted me to get a better education and saved up to send me there for 7th and 8th grade. I found out those kids from well off families where both parents are there for them came out just as fukked up as kids with worst off families.
One kid I went to school with, I was sent to a private school cause the middle school I was going to wasn't teaching me shyt and the school was shyt and my mom wanted me to get a better education and saved up to send me there for 7th and 8th grade. Dude's parents were there for him, gave him whatever he wanted, provided a good home for him, never laid a finger on him and talked with him if he was doing bad and he was a Straight A student and was the idea kid. When I talked with him, he was cool, was a nice dude.
Until one day I see him getting arrested at school, the CBS local affiliate was there interviewing people and brodcasting what they found out. I asked another one of my friends what was up and nobody knew, even teachers were like, what did he do, he's a good kid. We all were sitting there thinking, its gotta be a mistake, dude is too nice for shyt to end up in cuffs, but we found out what he did, dude was running a kiddie porn ring out of his parents house, news said he was recording shyt ranging from 2 years old up to 10 years, that shyt had us like
Dude was kicked out of the school and we never heard from him after that. Other kids that I went to the same school I was with were selling drugs, fukking around; one chick I was cool fukked one of my boys on a school trip to D.C on the plane, domed him up when everybody was asleep, and doing others kinds of crazy shyt. These were well off kids whose parents busted their asses to raise them and they still were doing fukked up shyt.
Just cause you provide for a kid and teach them right from wrong, doesn't mean that kids is gonna up into a decent person. That's on the kid just as much as the parents.
