Adriana
I think that people should stop war, killing and hating. You go to jail when you do something bad, but if you do something good you will get something back.

Alberto
When I grow up I want to be a lawyer to prevent good people from going to jail. Or maybe I will be a paralegal - the lawyer’s helper. To make this happen I first have to finish school, then I have to go to college. A college I have in mind is John Jay College.

Anthony

Cassandra
I want to be a singer. I want to get married and have kids. I want to give my children whatever they want and teach them not to steal. I will make sure that when they grow up they will still respect people and that they won't do drugs. I will make sure that they have clothes that aren’t beat up.
I will make sure they wash up every day and go to school. When they grow up they will be good mothers or fathers and they will teach their kids what I taught them. I won’t beat up my kids. I won't hurt them. I will be good to them.
They won’t disrespect me. They will help me clean up the house and they won’t be lazy. They will be very smart and they won’t hurt other people’s feelings. They will help people if they are hurt, sick or if they need something, even if they don't have money. They will be just like me when they grow up. I will remember to be a good mother

Clarissa
I would like to change the world by putting a stop fighting and treating everyone the same. We should be happy because we all live in the same world; we should make things better so we can live in peace.

Jashcoma
I think we should change all the bad stuff in the world - like nobody killing no one and no one robbing no one. No one should do that. I don’t have the power to do that, but I do have the power to stay sober. Sometimes I wish I had the power to change all of the bad stuff, but I do have the power of my family.

When I grow up I want to be a veterinarian so I can develop new ways for rehabilitation. I want to save animals from hazardous environments. I want to save animals because they can’t speak for themselves. I want to be an animal rights activist by saving endangered species. I want to be a scientist so I can breed different dogs. I want to be a famous genetic scientist.

Levi
I want to be a teacher because you will get to help a lot of kids. You can teach them something, too. You can teach them math, how to read and do science or you can teach them a lesson on something else, or have them do a spelling test or science project. I would like to have a dream like Dr. Martin Luther King, but I can’t do what he did, because I am not there with him. I will have to write instead.

Liliana
When I grow up I want to be a doctor so I can help people that are very ill. When I'm done being a doctor I want to be a teacher so I can teach children who have never been in school before. I want children to learn more. I am going to teach math and art and reading. I will teach children how to read and write; how to do math and create art.
I need to go to school to learn how to be a doctor, and I need to go to school to learn how to be a good teacher. I will work to be a kind teacher. I also want to have a big family, and I want all of my family to be together

Nichole
For my future I want to work by the time I am eighteen. I want to be busy working and traveling the world. I will finish high school, get a job and save money so I can go to college here in New York. I would like to be an artist and a poet.
A person who inspires me is Anne Frank. She inspires me because her vocabulary was so big for such a young girl and she went through so much. There is no excuse for anyone not to be smart. I hope that modern technology doesn't become too high-tech, so that we can't do stuff on our own anymore. In stead, we should learn from what we have and let life take its course. If there were anything I could do to change or affect the future it would be this war. NO BLOOD FOR OIL. Not just for Iraq, but for the world.

Shadasia
When I grow up I want to be a teacher and an explorer. I like playing school with my family. I want to teach children of all ages. I want them to learn and become educated so they can become whatever they like; doctors, lawyers, judges or even teachers. I want to be an explorer so I can learn about mummies.
I like how they are so well preserved and they still have their hair and teeth. But some mummies are extremely scary. I like reading about mummies and I like how their tombs are decorated. I will work really hard in school so I can do well and go to college. I know there is a school in Manhattan for kids who want to be teachers - maybe I will go to school there.
As an activist I would work to stop discrimination and fighting. As a judge I could fix the justice system so that there is no corruption. I would also like to become a billionaire to build houses for the homeless and so that I could give money to people who are poor. I would also like to be a lawyer to keep people who are innocent from being put in jail.
Of course, I could always just be the President of the United States. I want to be the first black and the first woman president and work at the United Nations. I want to change the future by helping people and creating peace. I want to make sure that life is fair for everyone

Windell
When I grow up I want to be a fireman, a scientist, a police officer, a construction worker and a basketball player. I want to be a scientist and a construction worker the most. I want to be a scientist because I want to make a little robot. I want to be a construction worker because I like to fix things and because my father is a construction worker too.
I can make my dreams come true by staying in school, getting my degree and staying off the streets and off of drugs. When I grow up my family won’t be poor and they will have a place to live. When I have kids I will teach them not to do drugs and I will make them go to school everyday, even when they are in college. I am going to be the boss. And if I have a son, I will teach him not to hit girls.
If my kids want anything all they will have to do is ask; they won’t have to steal. Also, I am going to make sure that if my kids have kids, they will teach their children the same thing.
