Do they live in a poor area? Cause my 4 friends that were on the stroll weren't poor. They did it for the thrill of it and they liked the attention. The money was a bonus. With the internet you would be shocked how many teens are doing this outside of school and at school.
Maybe "poor" was the wrong word...I believe this building is in the low income housing area of NJ...I might be wrong...I live in Washington State and I'm not familiar with NJ. That being said, I raised my daughter by myself (she's now 24) and we were poor. I worked my butt off to make sure she had food, shelter, protection and a ton of love and thank the Good Lord she's doing great...so is Mamma LOL. But MY Mom gave me the tools to be a strong but loving Mamma.
Someone said earlier that parenting is getting lost somewhere down the line - I totally agree, whether these parents don't have the correct tools to be able to raise their children well, they themselves weren't raised well, or they just don't give a rip...who knows. It's so sad...the children that we should be teaching to be respectable people, are going to be the ones that we will depend one...scary stuff!:twocents:
