TEXT TO SELF - A lot of these boys have had a mother abandon them and a father mostly not in their life. I relate because we got taken away from my mom so i know what its like to feel abandonment there. But my dad stepped up so i dont have an absent father.
TEXT TO WORLD - everyday on the news you hear about juvenile offenders. In the book it talks about murders, drug dealers, rapists.. thats all reality to everyone in the world. We are faced with this in our state even our community.
TEXT TO WORLD - In the book a part talks about a boy who killed his sixteen year old girlfriend. It is like a story in the news now about a boy we all know, that used to go to Holley. Even though it wasnt his girlfriend he still murdered a young girl.
I like how you know what your talking about but what i like best is that this stuff is on the everyday news. Today i saw that a woman and her son were arrested for drug dealing.
