Kids in smaller towns are influenced into joining bad groups due to peer influence. A number of articles and reports that I have read record high school dropout, lack of ambitions, cases of unwanted pregnancies, criminal activities and drug and substance abuse among kids growing up in small towns. Most of these issues arise for hopelessness and lack of role models in such communities. Developing smaller towns would bring close mentors and personalities that kids would want to identify with. This is the long-term program that will help develop kids into important members of the society.
