How are you doing mentally?
Did this take place in Canada?
Are you an affiliate or associate of the gang?
I grew up in the same lifestyle. The best advice I can give is stay in school and find some extra curricular activities to stay busy. Whether boxing and martial arts, the gym, sports, or a part time job. Staying busy will keep you off the block and out of the streets.
Are you confident you’re gonna make it? Nobody is gonna have jt all mapped out at your age, but whats your general money plan for next few years? Trapping or working?
How do you spend your free time? What is your relationship like with your parents/family/friends? Do you have a mentor?
Are you going to slide for your homies .?
“Are you going to destroy your life for certain and potentially the lives of several others?”
No.
They made their choices, you didn’t sign up. Dont fall for this shit. (I know you haven’t just backing your choices)
