Fair enough, T.I. isn't perfect and isn't a role model but at least he is using his life and his experience to show kids the right way forward in life. He isn't saying be like me, he is saying look at what I've done and where I've gone wrong and be better yourself.

@Realill100 Practice what you preach is a little misunderstood.People can say that all they want but life is all about mistakes and you will continue to make mistakes regardless of who you are.T.I. has been around things like that his entire life and you can't all of a sudden become a saint.It's like people with drug addiction.They just can't change that overnight it takes time.T.I. made another mistake but he will continue to make mistakes life every human being.Only God makes no mistakes.

@Realill100 "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" - Ben Franklin. It takes a lot to change a lifestyle and uproot all the problems. TI might never stop getting arrested. But the kids who haven't already made the mistakes can benefit from being told, by someone who knows all too well, not to let the seeds of delinquency take root. I see this as a positive thing.
