He lives with my aunt. never had a real father. we do not live in the same state. he lives in georgia. does bad in school. hangs out with the wrong crowd. he doesnt care about going to college.
treats my aunt like shyt. stays out all night. tried talking to him last week but he didn't listen.
everyone else in the fam giving up on him except my aunt but i refuse to.
what do i do?
Plan a trip and take him out for some sht he likes. Does he play games alot? Take him to the game spot to choose a game for you to buy him, does he like to smoke? Cop a loud pack and smoke some dank with him, whatever you do the point is to make him happy so he'll speak freely with you and listen. Whilst he's comfortable ask him why he's fukking up in school, find out why he's not doing well, be cool about it though.
You may find out that he actually wants to do well but cant because he has no study structure, in which case you need to explain to him that you're going to help him structure his time so his grade can get better.
The other alternative is that he just doesn't care about college. If he says he doesnt want to go to college really explain the consequences of not going, explain how important school is and how he could end up a bum if he doesn't get his sht right, if you're convincing enough you'll shake his ass up.
If he still doesn't act right after that, let him be, as there's nothing you can do about it, just make sure that if he drops out you're there to help him plan his next step.
The bad crowd bullsht is something a lot of kids go through, the only thing you can do to help him is chop up game with him regularly. He's probably going to hang out with that crowd regardless of what ya'll want, so your aim should be to wise him up so that whilst he is fckin with that crowd he doesn't get caught up.

I was a dumbass when I was 17 and now I'm working two jobs and making the dean's list at school. 
when they have their shytty ass friends supporting their antics. Don't worry he'll straighten out when he sees the success of his peers and notices how nothing good is going on in his life, or he'll crash and crash HARD
Fam,teachers and coaches. It didnt matter that I saw my nikkas taking them lil vacations and knew what they was there for I still kept going hard in the paint until I ended up with them its like young nikkas think they invincible till they get jammed up or laid down what makes us that way when we young?
