Hi fluffho
Yeah, it really is all to do with parenting skills. Alot of our kids are around the same environment but have parents who giving them the right guidance and are doing great!
I all ready know of one kid I had a few years ago that is now in a local gang. I just loved this kid, and I still talk to him, but I think he'll probably end up in jail. This year alone, I've had situations where staff, kids, and even parents have been threatened by our school-age kids. One threatened to come to the school and shoot up everyone. That's the type of thing that I withdraw a kid on.
Donny Darko is not even THAT scary.
Enough though, I'm back to the thread!
