I applaud this because thats a high school student who mother cares about him. He is too old to do this but he is not rebelling. I applaud that mother. Maybe a bucket with money for a tutor would help but I respect the message she is sending. Do you know in New Zealand they value education over entertainment and other things in the country. America and our values are all jacked up. When kids think being cool, smoking, dressing fly, having the most money is all valued and respected more than EDUCATION then we have a problem. I know we all can get sidetracked and want to live that lifestyle a few days out of the week. But we have to cut it out people, we are role models and our youth suffer. Although some kids become NBA players on 60 players are drafted in the NBA each year, and 224 in the NFL each year. Now compare that number to the number of college athletes who play the same sports. Now compare that number to the amount of high school athletes who didnt go to college to play sports. NOT EVERYONE CAN BE A RAPPER OR ATHLETE!!!!
For those who live in poverty yes it is a meal ticket out of the hood but education will always be there whether you become rich or poor. Education is invaluable!
Take a look at this video and you tell me its not sad after you realize they are middle aged school kids throwing ones in the air at Jamz skating ring here in Philly. I applaud the dance movement because its making a buzz. But they get this from their role models who make it rain in strip clubs who bring that aspect to music videos.
You got kids hype in front of a camera like its a DVD. If I ever see my future kid throwing up his allowance in the air I will …
Did anyone else hear “we make it rain everywhere we go” don’t forget they kids yall
