Both grew up without a father and in poor areas. The narrator Wes starts skipping school so his mothers sends him to military school where straightens up and later joins the army. On the other hand the other Wes started selling drugs and got arrested multiple times and eventually got put away for life.]]> 2017-02-10 19:04:39 UTC https://padlet.com/200175/ozjmag04kcam/wish/153154921 200175 https://padlet.com/200175/ozjmag04kcam/wish/153319107 "The chilling truth is that his story could have been mine. The tragedy is that my story could have been his." This quote represents the theme because the Narrator Wes could have went in the direction of the other Wes but instead chose to stay in military school while the other Wes continued to commit crimes.
