Whats going on to the somali youth in canada?

Im so over these somali kids wanting to be gangstars when they have literally the world at their feet. They dont have to pay for school, medical attention and housing. They have everything and they squander it.

I wish they would just send these little brats to some unkown island and lets see how tough they really are. Or taser the shit out of them untill they fall in line.

I think many of them are just lost and confused, so they were easily misguided. Either parents have to become more involved in their sons' lives - especially during those early years when they are starting school until they graduate high school - or the community has to step in an set up after-school activities and clubs for these children and to provide mentors to guide them. If some just decided to try to take some of the misguided teens under their wings and show them that they do indeed have potential, I think many of them would change their ways.

i agree with cushetic, however, you have not addressed the underlying problem; which is the enviroment these kids live in dictate how they turn out to be. By that i mean most of toronto somalis live in a very unsafe naighbourhoods where gang activities is rampant, and i think some of these kids gets threatened/ bullied by the gangs daily which inturn forces them to join the opposing gang in the naighbourhood for their own protection. The other thing is these kids needed to recieve a good old smack every now and then to instill fear for their parents, for their own sake so that they dont wind up making the wrong decisions. Sadly canada or any other dayuusbara countries dont allow such practise (smacking your kids) . Oh yeah, also ofcourse how can i forget the father of the child if he is alive how da hell can he neglect his child like that .

The take away lesson for somali parents in canada particularly is: Dont make ayuuto your priority!

I wouldn't know. I guessed I stopped going by the time he came around. But yeah, I made the trek west every week. I've learnt a lot there, but only realizing it much later.

I remember my first tahaarah class. I was 12. I struggled to keep my composure lol.

What was covered?

Pretty basic stuff. It was mostly knew to me at 12 though.

Guys, baasto is a sociologist and an expert on somalian adoloscenz violence in the diaspora. so called gangs is just really a false name for underclass,poor peope war fighting over access.and bragging rights to capitalist drug economy. The second aspect of the phenmonena is a hidden and rarely mentioned race war between the young males of certain ghetto.communities. Black vs latino in La is a classic example of this. Somaliam guangs were formed as defense mechanisms to other ethnic male groups in their areas. Within time those gangs be ame notorious and thus joined the dr
ug trade. Like all gangs, the somalian gangs started to fight over area disputes and drugs.
