Just as an add-on to my last post - we don't know WHO these kids are being influenced by, IF anyone at all. Again, I go back to my teen years and recollect MANY influences on my life. I did not have the life skills yet to make big decisions and am sure if called on to do so, I would have been swayed by one influence or another.
This is not a bashing of these students, just a reality check - they are still children.
