Life and Death

     Wes Moore was a young boy that preceded his teenage years inappropriately. He had a rough childhood doing things he shouldn't have done. Many were breaking laws and many were him being under aged. At the age of three, Wes's father collapsed and died at home from his throat swelling shut in the Maryland suburb. Things got really hard around with their dad.
     In the story I noticed a sign post. The sign post that I noticed, was the "word of the wiser." I think I found a word of the wiser because the police gave Wes an advice. The advice the officer gave Wes was "If you don't get smart, I am certain I will see you again." This shows how the officer lectured Wes. Tony also lectured Wes. This was more about the drug corners of Baltimore. Tony told Wes, " You're not built for this game." "You're smart, you can do other things." This shows how he was trying to tell Wes that the streets isn't a good idea.
