Yeah, but just because they've always done it doesn't mean it's the best thing for them to be doing.

I know I come from a very different culture, but if I knew my kids were hanging around aimlessly, I'd be finding them something to do. I know this because when we first moved here, Aden got hooked up with a group of kids that do just hang around the streets. He got himself into a bad situation, but was lucky enough to have us to help him find a better way. He's never looked back, and he's so much happier now. I can go into details if you like.
