Assignment #1

1. Why do you think Rameck made the choices he did? He knew right from wrong, so what motivated him to choose the "wrong" path as a teen? 1. What i think is that he was influenced by his friends, and since all of them did crazy stuff. I don't think that Rameck wanted to be left out of the group. Sometimes people act differently when they are hanging with others, just to be cool. Going threw the wrong path can bring you a lot of bad consequences. Friends can sometimes motivate you to do makea wrong decission, just because they don't know the difference between what is right and what is wrong.
2. Considering both his parents were drug addicts, was he really responsible for his actions? Explain your opinion. I don't think that he was really responsible, becuase of the examples that his parents are giving him it's simply the wrong way of life. Rameck kind off follows his parents steps not exacly threw drugs but hanging out with the wrong people at the wrong place.
3. Are young people responsible for their actions if they have no good role models or people to teach them the right way to live? Explain your opinion. What i think is that sometimes is right to have a good role model to follow there steps and go to the right path. Also some people that have a bad role model may have had a bad experience through thier lifes. They might not want to follow their steps, so they choose to go through the right path.
4. Who are the biggest influences in your own life? In what ways have they shaped you? What have they taught you? My biggest influences is my mom becuse she always had told me that no matter what i need to keep goin
