This is story about our youth and the behaviors in which they posses while at school or away from home. It goes in depth into each classmate lives, Nina, Scarlett, Niecy, Meeka and Vivica. Nina who has a two parent household who loves the LORD and tells her about HIM daily;finds herself struggling with this faith because of her run-in with Chandra the bully at school. She is not understanding how a GOD that says HE will protect her is not doing just that, especially when she finds herself having to run or take long ways home from school. Scarlett lives in a one parent household with her mother and 5 younger siblings. Scarlett has to always come home and take care of them.; only to find out that her mother is now pregnant with child number six or so it is child number six; because Scarlett has a deep secret that she has told no one. Scarlett feels as though GOD is punishing her by giving her all this burden. Niecy, lives in a one parent household with a mother who likes to party all the time. Men and women coming in and out of the house, smoking weed, drinking, and partying all night. This leads Niecy to do the same thing, having no care in the world about education because as she sees it, if you can't beat them, join them; this is all she knows. Meeka, who is invisible at her 2 parent home, deals with death after death, secrets that her father wants her to keep from her mother about his infidelity, and nobody even caring about her or her sister well being; which leads Meeka into a life of petty crime; where one crime she commits could possibly land her 20 years to life in prison. Vivica has a two parent household but is constantly ignored at home. Parents see her as not their child cause she looks different from the other siblings. They call her names and make her feel very insecure of herself. They pay no attention to her and do not validate her. This makes Vivica go out and seek attention elsewhere, the young boys at her school. She dresses provocative and is very promiscuous in her ways. Always wondering if she looks great, and asking others what they think of her outfits and her appearance. These girls are not friends, however they are classmates that share their differences in different ways. Will they be able to get through these situations or fall victim to just being another statistic in the world.
