The book is like an every day life for a teenager people don’t know what to expect when life becomes tough on the teens. There are many people that have a good life but people there know how to stick up for them selves and not get pushed around by bullies are more likely to succeed better goals in life. I also think that if people become leaders and not followers than a lot more kids will have a chance in life.

- Most teenagers have a life like these characters in the book. They get pressured into being in bad gang or even get bullied. Some teachers simply dont like kids cause they won't do things for them even though the teacher hasn't probably helped the student any.
