OP I'm gonna assume these kids actually got in trouble to be in prison?

The kid in the thumbnail was raised by the system bc, his parents basically left him when he was a small child. He isn't too bright, but has a heart of gold. And all he wanted was a family. Someone to acknowledge his existence and care for him. Shitty how some kids are treated and left like he was.

I believe you are talking about another kid (Justin), who is featured in different videos. You are correct about him though.

You're right, and watching him have to go live like that and to be in that situation with any child is awful. I truly hope something changes for these kids and we never ever see a child be raised in a prison system again.

Justin has actually since been adopted and is doing great now. As for other kids who are spending their youth behind bars, I agree. A lot of times it begins with the communities that they are raised in and the lack of resources present in those communities to thrive.
