How can you tell which children will grow up to be drug addicts and bums?
Easy, they’re the ones who were raised, likely by mothers, being asked what they want to do, rather than being told what they need to do.
And all the kids eventually want drugs.
Their needs are secondary to their wants. So they become always-needy and can’t take care of themselves. Getting high to fulfill the dopamine pacification system they were raised on.
It’s just bad parenting
I know a family where one of the six kids is homeless, but it’s because he’s a paranoid schizophrenic. The other siblings try to help him, but he refuses their help. He won’t take the meds, and he doesn’t trust anyone. He doesn’t mind sleeping on park benches, but he gets arrested for doing that. Anyway, it wasn’t a parenting issue in this particular case. No one knows how to help him anymore. They’ve tried for years. They get him apartments but he doesn’t stay. He seems to be on the move frequently. A vagrant if you will.
That simple? Is it?

“My mom is my best friend”
I get a kick out of watching body cam arrest videos. A certain demographic will go absolutely ape crap over the slightest interaction of cops for minor things and will turn it in to a full on chimpout. And two thing they always do, hold on to the cell phone for dear life, and yell, “CALL MY MOMMA” at the top of their lungs. It’s like they all go to some sort of finishing school to learn how to make a minor infraction in to a felony arrest.
