As my feelings just started getting mature, he came and told me that he wasnt ready for a relationship and that its not me its him and how sorry he was. It really hurted me but i didnt want anyone to know how hurt i was by it, so i hid it with smiles and laughs. From that day on i promised myself that i will never let a guy enter my door again to make so frusrated, that i was hurt until iwas for sure i was ready.

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? he wanted to be little bit like the others so that he fits in and then on top of that his parents werent showing him no kind of example they were both on drugs. i think he also did things that werent right because he probley wanted that attention from his parents that normal kids get.



2. Considering both his parents were drug addicts, was he really responsible for his actions? Explain your opinion. he was some what responsible for his own actions because he was almost an adult. i mean he is not a little kid anymore, but his parents were never there when he needed them. teenagers go through a lot of problems , and sometimes you need someone who you feel most comfortable with to tell your problems and when you dont have that someone to be there for you, you will alwys have your parents who have went through what you went through and are willing to help you with whatever you come upon to them with.



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. i guess you can say yea to that, but if you look again if you dont have someone to show you how to be a better person how are you going to know what to look at and learn from. in my opinon if i didnt have someone to taech me wrong from right or even much show me how to be like them but even better i wouldnt be the person i am today about life.



4. Who are the biggest influences in your own life? In what ways have they shaped you? What have they taught you? in my life the biggest influences are people who show me how to love life and just are very postive about thigs. i can honestly say that celebrities really can show you alot and you try to fall in there steps.
