What Would You Do?




No one takes a real interest in him. He's not the best student, so it doesn't really matter to the teacher if he shows up at school or not. His mother is alone and doesn't care much about where he spends his days as well.


He shows up at our door on a school day. He rings the door bell and asks to come in. He plays computer. He plays games with Allona and Vova. He eats when we eat. He doesn't want to leave the house until we leave or close to dark.



You and I know that without an education he has no chance at jobs. I tried to tell him that today. We could tell him he couldn't come in. Then he'll find some other place to go that might not be as healthy for him as our place.


What ideas do you have? How could we motivate him to go to school? when school to him is drudgery, mocking and boredom?

What would you do? How can we reach Maxim for God? Is there anything we can do to give him a future?
