I have been working with teens and young adults for almost 15 years and it seems that they are faced with similar problems as I was while growing up. I'd share my experience of being a drug dealer so that they could see that the consequences you faced were definitely not worth it. I would show them other alternatives to being on the street. I have managed to help numerous young adults to pursue their dreams, get into college and become a productive part of society.view less
