One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My 2 odd years life with about 12 children, tagged as potential future hooligans. The journey figuring out ways to step into their shoes, all experiments, set-backs, blow-offs, small successes.. with one goal to help them rethink their choices. One amazing thing is being a part of their lives who are now doing pretty well in their lives..
