1) Tashey:To Be or Not To Be Delinquent?

When I reflect on my teenage years, there are a few factors that impacted my decision to not engage in delinquent behavior. I am an only child and my parents gave me anything I wanted. All I had to do was be respectful and go to school and get good grades. As long as i followed their rules I didn’t have a care in the world. There was no need for me to engage delinquent because I loved the lifestyle I had at such a young age and didn’t want it to be taken away. In order to stay on the right path I participated in being a cheerleader and I danced with a performance arts group outside of school. I knew that I had to do right in order to become successful and keep my parents happy.

2)Socorro: To Be or Not To Be Delinquent?

I think what impacted me the most not to engaged in delinquent behavior was my parents, since I was little my parents though me right from wrong and if one day I decided that I would do something wrong I would definitive was going to get it. My parents were very old school with me, and I never though of doing something wrong because I was scare of my parents not because they would hit me, (my parents never put a hand on me), but because of the respect that I had. Thinking of how disappointing they would be if I did something wrong would be worse than if they would of put a hand on me. And thank God they were like that because i have respect for others, for my elders and authorities, now a days I see kids talking back to their parents with no respect and to me thats a big NO NO.
