The more you watch Reuben you gotta feel for this kid.   I thought it was strange that Reuben wanted to follow Trooper but when you watch him you can tell he is looking for some kind of father figure that he has not had.    It seems he wants that more than a school.   To me it is sad to watch and I hope this kid makes it and gets what he is looking for.  Seems like a good kid that needs some guidance and I hope he gets it.
