The youth will set u free...


Sorry for the little delay just been super-busy tryin to get into grad skool and all. Anyway I just wanted to touch base with you about something das been goinz on(lol). I was..ummm well "volunteered" to mentor underprivileged youth in a local neighbor"hood". I am a science major so the subject i teach is guess...science!!!! I just started but i have to say that itz a long road ahead. Many of the students dont even know basic science like whas the scientific method? Now i know everyone is not built for science like dat but all should know some of the basics. It is not even that..really cuz i know most youth in impoverished areas could care less about what atoms and molecules do but it is the commitment to learn SUMTHIN (the lack thereof). I assume they casually go through skool life like not being held to higher standard of education like itz not important or that they just dont care. Of course it starts in the home but it takes a village ya dig. So i know we are all busy with our own lives but take the time for the youth whether it be mentoring or just saying something positive to them. It is woefully needed in a place where itz cool to be a thug. The youth need a better outlook on things and what better way than through education. Itz all about commitment so ask urself are u committed to their future?
