That's true....but how often do you see that? Not too often. Kids today need (especially black children) need discipline. And discipline from people that look like them...It's a self-esteem builder. The ghetto youths need self esteem and role models to look after... I'm not too sure if that's what they are receiving in these institutions. I think that we all know people who have been in these group homes and boys camps...ect...ect... They come out the same as they entered...The only difference is that they are old enough to go to the real prisons and jails.... There has got to be a better way... Education helps...but it's all dependent upon the type of education you receive. It's gaining a knowledge of self that's important...Of course the degree is good to help get a job in this society...but what good is that degree if you don't anything to help YOUR people with it?
Just a little food for thought!!!!
Trying to generate a vibe in this room!!!!
