00:00on a night out peeps 16 year old Charlotte Hart is beyond her parents
00:19control food obviously they've been drinking because you can smell it and it
00:27really stinks it does and they've just gone out they left me to clear up all their mess
00:32parents pissed me off just all low bullshit really just keep going on and
00:38on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on at me all the time just for
00:42nothing really she would shout and she'd be aggressive she slammed doors she
00:47tried to like overpower me and I think she knows she can overpower me just
00:52irritates me so much she's just so stupid she just walks all over me
00:56don't she she's got no respect for me you know whatsoever it's tiring it's
01:02draining complete battle that I'm not winning
01:08Charlotte's parents feel powerless to keep her out of trouble at school I think
01:13she goes to school for a joke and a laugh and intimidate the teachers so the
01:18teachers oh I hate them they're like arseholes they are they're like moan at
01:21you for the most stupidest little things if Charlotte wants to answer her phone in
01:25the class she will answer her phone or text or text or move seats or whatever
01:30Charlotte wants to do Charlotte tends to do it and then she gets told off at
01:34school and then she's in the sin bin which you don't really care about does
01:37she what did you call the teacher last time you had a run bitch bitch it's not funny is it
01:44I'll find that I don't find that funny at all it's draining it is yeah because you
01:51think goodness you know we brought up this girl and you know I sort of say a child is a
01:56reflection of their parents and we ain't like that you do wonder why they are the
02:00way they are but it's just they're difficult sometimes
02:11I'm the reason why everyone argues I'm the reason why everything is bad since dad
02:15buggered off 17 year old Sam Northage is an angry young man I haven't called you a
02:21bastard I haven't said that you are lazy I do value you I care a tremendous amount
02:28about you and I am just trying to be a mother I'm not saying I'm the worst person
02:33in the world but I don't want to be I've never ever ever wanted to be with this
02:37place I'm fed up with this I just feel at the moment it's like a volcano inside Sam
02:45he's a lot more aggressive to mum if mum says no he'll just do it anyway I stand up for
02:50myself and I don't just bend over and take it whenever someone makes up a rule
02:58Sam is from a devout Christian family but since his parents split up a year ago and
03:04his father went to live abroad he's lost his faith and his mother is struggling to
03:09control him I have been a strict parent but in the last year since his dad left
03:15he's been pushing the boundaries if I've got the choice I will stay out pretty
03:19much every single night and I just don't really go back there unless I need the
03:24toilet or need food despite his mother's difficulties running the home alone Sam
03:29has all but turned his back on his family my mates I would consider to be my real
03:38family because they're the ones who are with me all the time no ones who are always
03:44there for me so these guys really are my real family and not the people who I just live with
03:50I've spoken that's the end of it I'm not having it he's just pushed and pushed at the boundaries he
03:57won't take no for an answer I don't need that top now in a unique experiment both families have
04:08agreed to try something different look at that hideous mugshot oh that's not a good picture they
04:17have decided to send their teens abroad to live with new parents should be alright for a while and
04:23and then when she don't like something she'll go mad have a little tantrum
04:28Sam and Charlotte will be spending a week in Jamaica with parents who demand absolute respect
04:39I'll see you very soon I think it'd be wonderful if he could come back with a motivation that he
04:56hasn't had for the last year I want him to realize within himself that he's actually spoiling the family
05:06makeup by his aggressive behavior I do hope this could be you know the start for Charlotte to sort
05:22herself out and realize there is more to life than arguing and getting the ump and and stuff you know
05:29the teen's destination is nearly 5,000 miles away maypen central Jamaica where they'll be staying with the rose family
05:46the roses believe a relentlessly strict household is the only way to bring up children
05:56which way you're going come this way there are rules of the house they have to respect the rules
06:02they have to obey the rules when they break the rules there are consequences basically that's true
06:08that's true that's true dad Dave is a government driver his wife Sharon is a full-time mother to
06:15their two daughters 14 year old Davia and seven-year-old Devine but it's Sharon who's in charge
06:26I don't even have to flog them because they know the signs I'll give them the look one look
06:32one look she knows that the roses believe in physical punishment for children absolute obedience
06:43to parents and that everyone in the family should earn their keep discipline is a key in everything
06:50that you do without discipline and the father above you will not make it because you have to have
06:58discipline starting from the home they think their old-fashioned parenting could teach the british teens
07:05a thing or two it's a wild horse it can be tamed it can be tamed
07:18for the next week sam and charlotte will answer to the rose family and live as if they are their own
07:25children has actually sunk in yet that you're in jamaica it's not a holiday is it i know it's not
07:30a holiday but it's jamaica
07:35maypen is a two-hour drive from the airport into the island's interior
07:40jamaica is famed for its beaches and party atmosphere but where the teens are headed there is neither
07:47the roses live in a modest bungalow this is your house charlotte is bunking with devia and devine
08:10while sam has a room to himself this is your room charlotte and those are your sister uh the family
08:18they seem very very nice and it's excellent i was a little bit nervous about meeting them
08:23because i didn't really know what they were going to be like but they seem excellent so it's going to be
08:28good okay do one thing i do smoke tobacco and i have done for quite a few years i'm completely fine if
08:36i can't smoke in here but if i'm out and about is that all right if i have a cigarette no we're not
08:40do smoking is a no no no no we don't smoke we don't smoke we don't drink but we talk about it in the
08:47morning well that might be a bit of a problem and i mean to be entirely honest i'm willing to take any
08:53punishment they want to give me for smoking i can say i'm not going to be able to go the whole 10 days
08:58without smoking the teens have only been in the house a few minutes but already sharon thinks she's got
09:05their number charlotte she looked fragile but um she's frightened you know new environment
09:14i mean sam he doesn't look like a normal child you need to be fixed because there's no way
09:20i could have sam under this roof looking like that because he doesn't look like a normal child
09:25good morning good morning good morning charlotte we're gonna get up now it's time to get going
09:41the teens have arrived at the weekend how are you
09:45good good good good but rather than their usual lion there's an important family meeting
09:57dave kicks off with some do's and don'ts around the house
10:01good morning
10:04if you eat or drink from it wash it if you use it or move it put it back
10:11if you open it close it if you do all these things this house will be trouble free get a picture
10:21no alcohol no smoking neither indoor or outdoor no swearing right you have to sweep the floor you have
10:33to wipe the floor your room must be kept tidy our house is always kept and i'm expecting you guys to keep
10:43it clean keep it tidy there's dress code as well and sam those errands have to go
10:52like um i don't know if either of you have got any piercings
10:54i can't take them out and leave them for the time i'm here i can respect who you are i have piercings
11:03that i can replace them with that are a lot less like this remember as i said we are we are the adult
11:10pair so you understand that clearly our kids call us mommy and daddy we're expecting you guys to do the
11:18same um i might have problem with that why because the name dad i promised myself that i would never
11:27use that word again okay and i would prefer personally to call you sharon and dave than mom and dad
11:34this family is pretty much nuts but uh for some reason i think that they are actually my parents
11:43parents and uh it's just completely over the top really the way you go ahead is gonna be a complete
11:53and utter bitch really for charlotte it's all too much i just want to go and save my mom
12:01i just don't want to pay him it's the first time charlotte's been away without her parents right now
12:07charlotte is crying but that doesn't say that i'm gonna be oh you can do what you want to do
12:14no it doesn't happen that way the rules remain she could be crying to um say well i'm gonna manipulate
12:22them but that's not gonna happen i'm gonna i'm gonna i'm gonna be even firmer i'm gonna be firmer
12:29nearly 70 percent of jamaicans are devout christians and in the rose household everyone attends saint
12:39gabriel's anglican church on sunday since losing his belief in god a year ago sam has not set foot in a
12:47church i'm not going to be going into your church to worship your god that i don't even believe in
12:52this is sunday morning in jamaica we worship on sunday morning we go to church there's a time
12:59you should go and worship and you should go and enjoy no no no you don't tell me what i should do
13:04you don't tell me what i should do i am not going to be staying in your house tonight if i haven't
13:08managed to have a fag and i'm not stepping inside your church which is apparently already starting
13:15well sam let me tell you this the sam don't walk away from me don't walk away from me
13:21don't do that that is one disrespect we don't walk away from people we want to talk to people
13:36father son and holy spirit hallelujah hallelujah
13:44now and forever amen i am not taking shit from this family i'm not being told that i'm not allowed
13:54to have my basic human bloody rights when i'm out in jamaica because it's not in their house rules
14:00for seven-year-old davia there's a simple solution to sam's problem you don't have to have cigarette
14:15you can have a sweet i don't have a small sweet i don't have any sweet i'll buy it tomorrow these are
14:25gummy bears these don't have any nicotine in them you can take those gummy bears and do like this
14:32make them smell it and then you eat it i did not come out here to visit the world of sharon rose
14:44i i am not here wanting to just bend over to all of sharon's rules let me tell you something sam
14:52listen if you continue like this you'll be in bed for seven o'clock you're acting like a toddler
14:57you're an uh fine i'm a toddler i'm an immature little child who is 17 years old you don't act
15:04like a 17 year old and this is church and you're and you're gonna respect church this is my this is
15:08place that i've worshiped and this behavior will not continue here so zip it up now and that's it
15:14that's my final word this is my final word apparently there is not going to be any compromise
15:21um i am the silly little child and uh she is the uh wise brilliant adult who knows everything in the
15:31world about me um so i have no say in it um i am not smoking the entire time i'm here i can have a
15:39nervous breakdown and end up a gibbering mess i'm not having a fag while i'm here
15:52back home after an argument sam would normally storm out of the house
15:57instead he's sent to bed early sharon's had more than enough of his behavior for one day
16:04everyday british government need to send these kids um to live in jamaica not coming to see the
16:10discipline in jamaica but come and live here period these kids need discipline it's not it's not it's
16:18not about them it's about parents it's too much too privileged too hi sam it's a school day
16:41sam and charlotte have been in jamaica for two days and haven't yet been out alone
16:46today the roses are sending them to school are you finished no not yet uniforms are obligatory
16:53as is pride in your appearance it ain't gonna be good because you made me rush it
16:59every few seconds it's uh do the job faster do the job faster sam are you through um
17:05should i iron the trousers yes you have to add the trousers seams must be in place very straight
17:10how do you think you're green green sam is still smarting from his running with sharon
17:19he now has a new strategy for getting through the week i just want out and uh actually trying to be a
17:27unique uh individual in this country is um not allowed so you need to just blend in with absolutely
17:34everything else and uh shut the hell up basically if you want to actually get by if you actually
17:39try to be something that's unique in this country uh you basically are screwed
17:44i don't know what's happening i know i look really funny but for fuck's sake look at you
17:52you look just as dumb as i do you put all your earrings out i've got my earrings in my pocket
17:58so the minute i'm out of there i'm sticking them back in
18:01despite her parents ambitions for her charlotte has consistently underachieved at school in the uk
18:07i just see school as free babysitters during the day like parents would go off to work don't want
18:14to leave you at home i'll send them to school but charlotte did manage to take her gcse's despite
18:21her negative attitude she could have done a lot more better at school than she has done because
18:26charlotte just went to school really i think basically to be the class clown i don't really see
18:29the point of school if you're not if you don't want to learn then i think you should like some
18:33people prefer like going to work and stuff so what's the point of going to school if you don't
18:38like it she is a bright a bright girl who could do so much better but she can't be bothered
18:48in jamaica a state education is seen as a privilege rather than a right
18:53for sharon under achievement is not an option in jamaica you go to school to get an education
19:00to be a professional person have a job education is a key to success charlotte and sam are joining
19:0914 year old davia at denbigh high it's the local secondary school and principal joan wint runs a tight
19:15ship this school has a reputation for being a strict school and a disciplined school and also a successful
19:24school school there are great things that can happen to you that can happen to you and that's
19:30what dead be is all about so we have rules and we have regulations and the students have to abide by
19:38them or else there are punitive measures they understand what i'm saying yeah
19:50the teen's first task is to write a poem and an essay beginning with the line
19:54jamaica is the essay is to test their level of articulacy expression and concentration
20:05while sam knuckles down within minutes charlotte's attracting the attention of the teachers
20:11i'm not doing it and does unprecedented we've never had a challenge so openly defined it's not
20:27the best way it is done here if you it's an examination you have to sit and drive and do
20:33some work and if you're not doing it then you have to go to the principal's office let's go then
20:37do you want me to get my bag
20:47charlotte
20:48do you hear that you are not writing the exams yeah you don't have a choice yeah but i'm just
20:54and it doesn't matter what you like or what you don't like is what is required of you why you can't
21:00force me listen to me i cannot force you to put your pen to paper so why are you punishing me for it
21:06it's not punishing is it something that is outside of your competence to do i don't understand that is it that
21:12you are unable to do the exercise no i'm not stupid i just don't want to do it exactly so then so you're
21:18just being defiant please let's talk in my office
21:25you either decide to do it or at the end of school you will sit and do a detention in which you will
21:30write the exam take your hand from your hips please thank you this is ridiculous it may be ridiculous but
21:36that's required of you it really is it does not matter what you think so decide it's a choice i'll
21:42do it but i'm writing loads i'm not going to write whatever you write but you go to the exam room and
21:47you do it she's going back to the room and she's going to write the exam okay
21:53i don't know if i've ever had in my 36 years anybody saying to me well you can't make me do it
22:01i don't think i've ever had that i don't think i've had that experience
22:08charlotte eventually commits her views on jamaica to paper
22:18and finds that once she starts she can't stop
22:24i've written well loads actually didn't write what was meant to write i just wrote about how i felt and
22:28i feel better now front all down
22:35the british teens are something of a novelty and sam is enjoying being the center of attention
22:43yeah i do she's 15. and you're old are you i'm seven
22:50uh it's all right i'm getting on with the uh people here um
22:53um i'm the uh only white guy in this school so i've had a lot of people sort of like uh looking
22:59at me and because i'm wearing this hat everyone thinks i'm a raster i mean when i'm back in england
23:05i'm hardly the most popular person in the world i mean i've got plenty of mates and i've got all my
23:09own mates but uh if i started a new school back in england i wouldn't have all these people
23:14crying around me asking me all sorts of different things the teens have only been at the school a
23:22few hours and there's a problem sharon has been called back in by the principal
23:29the essay that charlotte wrote earlier is a direct challenge to everything principal mrs winch stands
23:35for her language it doesn't know why children are respectful yeah yeah respectful my ass the people
23:44back home don't take no shit so i don't see why the students should today is happening like a total dick
23:52and um again she's pissed off and she's not taking no shit this whole thing to my mind is disrespectful
24:00the fact that what she wrote was unacceptable and you know the school does not put up with it
24:08could you ask charlotte to come in thank you
24:14have a seat
24:19how do you express annoyance do you think that annoyance should be expressed in appropriate ways
24:26like inappropriate ways inappropriate ways was your annoyance expressed in an appropriate way no
24:33why did you choose to use inappropriate language because i was annoyed really people who use
24:40inappropriate language expletives filthy words what does that tell about that person
24:47that they're not a very nice person really who does it reflect on words your home or yourself myself
24:55do you hate yourself no no so why do you want to do yourself something that is negative
25:04you shouldn't it no it's about choosing you know what's right you know what's wrong
25:10and in your annoyance you thought of hurting somebody else but in the end it was your reputation that got
25:17hurt you see so i want you to think and be more responsible as you make your choices
25:24i think you deserve to apologize to mrs wilkes sorry no no no no no come on a good apology
25:33you addressed her i'm sorry for what i did it was wrong you addressed her mrs wilkes
25:38mrs wilkes i'm sorry for what i did it was wrong and i shouldn't have done it and it was unfair to the
25:46other like pupils around me who could hear me and i shouldn't have done it you should learn something
25:52about yourself that when you become fearful you become easily angry yeah so you like something that
25:57you have to work on you know at my school if you've done something wrong they'll just say like
26:08i went to detention no one would really talk to you about it it'll probably happen again but he'll like
26:13talk to you and make you realize what you've done angry disappointed every day is going to be like
26:29this it will not happen it will not happen this is all you do it
26:48your hand don't have to go squeaky squeaky squeaky unbeknown to sharon the day's events
26:53appear to be having an impact on charlotte's negative attitude i'm sorry about today sharon
27:03are you yeah really really sorry yeah how do you think i feel today getting that phone call after
27:09we've been through all of this disappointed very disappointed because you know i knew you were nervous

27:39its toll on sam and charlotte it's just really weird really like being away from my mom and my dad

29:42i was your boyfriend i never ever do those things
29:46it's day four the teens are halfway through their experience in jamaica
29:59how are you feeling today
30:03today at denbigh high the students are being drilled in the school's strict moral code
30:08we're going to have a very interactive session this afternoon and i know it's something that is on
30:14everybody's lips so can you tell me what that is
30:19unlike in britain where teens are tutored in the art of safe sex here the message is more simple
30:26the only safe sex is no sex sex can be is fun you know but it is not for teenagers you have heard
30:32it over and over again that sex is for married couples it's no to alcohol it's no to sexual advances
30:44and it's no to drugs and to help our teenagers say no the jamaican government has come up with 101
30:52helpful lines read one for me stop now stop no he's touching you you are going to say stop no and
31:00what you have to be emphatic about that no means what no right read another one for me sam
31:07uh i want to break up until you can wait i like that one i want to stop that no i want to stop sex
31:15no just take a look at something that i have this look at this this is how our bodies can be tampered
31:23with this this is a post that is coming from the penis his penis burns do you see this you don't like
31:32this thing right i'm sure you are going to go out here and be the vehicle for change and have super
31:40safer sexual skills
31:50what they're teaching i think is absolute boy like they're basically brainwashing them if i believed
31:57what they said here the minute anyone has the very first thrust of sex they've got aids and they're
32:03already pregnant and they're already going to die very very soon people just say like bollocks to that
32:11sam has a reputation for coasting at school but at denby they've noticed his talent
32:17the poem he wrote yesterday about fatherhood has been singled out for praise i want to share with
32:22your partner when i have a child i will set him free his choices are made by him not me i'll guide him
32:31well as best as i can but he must walk his own path and follow his plan my love for my family
32:40shall never run out i'll stand on the rooftop and give out a shout my beautiful family my beautiful
32:47wife my beautiful children this is a beautiful poem yes the fact that i use it sam means i think it's a
32:57good piece well done on the exam conditions
33:04the staff feel that sam has a low opinion of his own ability before he leaves they have some parting
33:10advice somebody says to you some you're doing well you said no no i don't think i'm doing well because
33:16because because because say yes accept i'm not an a grade student i've never been so and i don't
33:22hope that you will say that again for the little that i have seen of you and how quickly you were
33:28able to write that poem i think you have tremendous ability tremendous possibilities don't ever think
33:35that you are not capable of the a i think you are capable of the a it's a little bit hard to believe
33:41when the only people who have actually ever said that to me all live in jamaica no one back in
33:47england has ever said anything like that to me not once has anyone ever said that i'd actually be
33:52able to get an a uh no one's do you think that's why you doubt yourself because nobody has that kind of
33:59confidence i don't actually have the ability to do certain things children who are smart are
34:06able to get a's no no it's not people who are smart get a's it's people who believe in themselves
34:13and work towards it i'll try my hardest but i can say right now i will never be able to get an a
34:21despite being predicted higher grades sam got mostly c's and one e in his gcse's the comments
34:27have struck a nerve i do fail because i'm not the smartest person out there i don't need some
34:32teacher who's met me for two days telling me she knows me so i don't bloody need being told how
34:39brilliant and amazing i am because whenever you do that why on earth aren't i brilliant and amazing
34:44why aren't i getting as good grades as the smart geek with the ridiculous glasses
34:59later on that evening sam's in a more reflected mood my dad basically uh was a genius uh he was
35:06one of the smartest guys you'll ever meet in your life and he was a complete and utter
35:11bastard he was constantly belittling me and making me feel like i was totally totally stupid it's uh
35:20basically led me to the point where i don't want to be intelligent i don't want people to think i'm
35:25smart i want to be someone who is at the lower end of things so that way i don't get told that i have
35:33to achieve up this point for the rose family succeeding at school is not an option but a must
35:47education is a means of escaping the surrounding rural hardship dad dave is keen that the teens
35:53experience this first hand kids in england america and canada live in a life of paradise they need to
36:02come to jamaica this jamaica can be a hellhole at times and this is the best place for them to come
36:10jamaica can be a life of paradise but they need to know the hardship of life things put down on a silver
36:18plateau for them and that's not to be like that the roses may have a comfortable life by jamaican
36:25standards but their extended family still rely on the land to survive
36:33today the teens are being sent to the farm where sharon grew up this is where i've worked my family
36:39worked this is how we we gain money to put food on our table and since charlotte and sam is a part of
36:47my family there have to be work on the farm to see what the farm life is about how we can do things
36:54as a family
37:11sharon's mother and brother struggle to maintain the farm alone so the whole family help out
37:17this is my brother richard and this is charlotte and that's sam they're here today to put in some labor
37:29the first job is helping richard clear all the weeds from the potato and pepper field
37:36what about these ones what are they
37:37it's back-breaking work but by the end of the morning the teams have made some progress albeit
38:04reluctantly it's a little bit different weeding a farm than weeding a garden if it suited me i'd do
38:11the garden uh if it was something like this i would do it if i was getting quite a bit of money for it
38:18yeah but no it's got to make us realize as well that they have to do this to survive basically we can
38:24just go to tesco's and get i don't know whatever they're growing a tomato or something but they
38:30have to grow and like care for it and then they have to sell it to get money the roses also raise
38:37chickens for slaughter and as a reward for their work the tunes are given one to take home
38:52yeah yeah yeah go on that one nice nice come right there
39:00charlotte that's very good the only problem is first they have to kill it
39:06come come come stop the crane come come come stop the crane come it's not hard it's not hard it's not
39:11hard it's not hard it's not hard it's not hard it's not hard in the back and cut off the head
39:20oh what do you want to do water running
39:25well i prefer not to hold the head i don't want to be holding a severed chicken head
39:29thank you all right where am i going with this then it's horrible i'm not i'm not gonna eat
39:43chicken anymore i'll say that and probably we'll probably go and have chaos here or something
39:51all right by the end of the day sam's attitude is starting to change
39:56seriously this ain't easy this ain't no holiday whatsoever um no one at all um
40:04who thinks of jamaica in england thinks it'd be like this everyone's like oh yeah beaches
40:11nice hot weather uh rasters smoking spliffs it ain't like that the real jamaica is so so difficult
40:21sam and charlotte have been in the rose house
40:25i must say thank you um you've made this dinner possible and you know you guys you did a marvelous
40:37job today thank you and i must say thank you here you go sam wow thank you you're welcome thank you very
40:48much read it read it how much is it it's uh 500 uh jamaican dollars 500 jamaican dollars is equivalent
40:57to just under four pounds
41:02good chicken their thoughts about sharon are starting to change too i think she's all right
41:08you just like talk to her and tell her how you feel and stuff i mean she understands
41:12she's not a bad woman um she just don't take no shit basically and i do take bad things that i said
41:21about her she's a good woman and uh
41:24uh yeah she's cool i like her for the teens there's finally some news from home are you doing fine i have
41:39something for you this is a letter from your mom
41:54me and dad think the world of you and are so proud of you for what you have done and love you more
41:59than anything in the world come on guys i just love her so much oh that's good that's good
42:13that's the spirit this is love right good good good she was like um you should call me a div
42:24that like upsets me when you shout and swear at me and stuff but i don't like i know she's annoyed
42:32but i don't know upset so because she doesn't show it in charlotte's family they're not able to
42:41to have family discussion because charlotte would just walk away she needs to stand up face it say
42:49this is what i'm feeling she realizes that you know her hunger and whatever it put her nowhere
43:01come on baby i'm so proud of you are you proud of yourself yeah
43:09before sam came to jamaica there were daily rows with his mother now she's written him a letter
43:21it's very peaceful at this end
43:26and that has been very healing it was our family we are great we are in great need of peace and healing
43:34we have all been through a lot but the only way we are ever going to get through
43:42is if we get the peace that we deserve
43:52it's basically just saying that she really doesn't like the way that i've been back home
43:56and that she really doesn't like who i'm becoming
44:07i want my mom to like me
44:12fuck the love fuck the respect i want my mom to like me
44:17come on
44:40with two days left to go
44:42sharon and dave have a friend living on the other side of the island who they want sam to meet
44:47his father also walked out on him and they think sam could learn from his example
44:5419 year old malachi johnson lives in portland cottage in the southern hurricane belt
44:59by contrast to sam he shouldered responsibility for his whole family despite facing extraordinary adversity
45:06the roses hope the meeting will be a wake-up call for sam okay sam meet my friend here
45:16and um he's a very good person he's only two years um older than you
45:22i know
45:27oh excuse me
45:36this place is like makes my place look really really good
45:41i thought it weren't that good but it makes it look pretty good
45:45last year malachi gave up his education to get a job to provide for his seven siblings after his
45:51father left. My little sister, Tommy, say hello. So basically I grew up in a rough life.
46:02Then my mum now, she got pregnant at that time and my stepfather was taking drugs, so
46:08basically left home. Mine is so different. What motivates me the most is my family.
46:20That motivates me the most to get a job. That's what motivates me the most. Sometimes I feel
46:26like, sorry, but sometimes I said, God knows the reason why I put me in this position.
46:31I used to be a Catholic, but I lost my faith. I used to believe in God and all that. But
46:36I just like, I just lost it. I just couldn't believe in anything anymore.
46:41If I didn't baptize at one point and become a Christian at one point, like I would give
46:46people for a long time. It's just like, everything that I've thought was bad, everything I thought
46:53was shit, basically. It's absolutely nothing. I'm sure like, you'd rather live my life than
47:02live out here. Sometimes I like wondering to myself, why did I
47:08born in this family, but I think that God put me here for a special reason.
47:18This is made fucking, coming here is made like, everything different. I ain't complaining no more.
47:30Throwing nothing to complain about. I'm gonna basically just not be such a little whining twat.
47:37I really have been, I think. Don't know what on earth to say, man.
47:43He's basically just shoved me the fuck up.
47:45How you doing Sam? Hello. How was it?
47:57It was amazing. I chose to give up on things and he didn't. I gave up on my family. I gave
48:04up on trying and he didn't. And yet he's got absolutely, he's got so little compared to
48:10what I do. Yeah, he's got the biggest grin on his face ever. He's happy. Yeah. Just being
48:17there sort of causing more problems. And I'm not doing that anymore. I really cannot do
48:23that anymore. Otherwise I'm not going to be able to, like, put up with myself.
48:29It's the teen's final day in Jamaica. Tomorrow they'll be back home with their own families.
48:41Let us pray. Thank God for this food. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. I pray and I hope that all
48:50will be well when you guys get home. You can have breakfast like this with your family. And
48:56I must say a big thank you. You guys have done well this morning. Breakfast. The beds
49:03were perfect. The house clean. I must say a very thank you to you guys. Good. Let's have
49:14breakfast. Sam and Charlotte been with me. We had highs and low moments. We had laughter.
49:21We had fun. We had tears. Oh, scream, shouting. But yet I stood by grounds and they knew what
49:30I'm all about. What I stand for. Discipline, discipline, discipline. Respect, respect, respect.
49:37And I give them a lot of love. Love. Unconditional love. It's just been such hard work being here.
49:44And I've learnt so much. And I'm just, I'm really eager to get back. It's sort of end something and start something new.
49:51For me it really is to start something new. It's a start of a new way of being with my family, which is cool.
49:58I don't think my mum will argue. And I think because I've been away from her, like for this amount of time, it's just like, oh, maybe I do really miss her and appreciate the things she does and I should listen to her more and stuff like that really.
50:12To mark their departure, the roses are throwing a farewell party for all the family.
50:27Go!
50:39Can you... Can I have a dance, please?
50:41No.
50:42You don't want to dance?
50:43No, that's a wars.
50:44You're crying.
50:45Crying over me.
50:50Oh, I don't cry.
50:51You're like me all week now crying.
50:56crying. Well you enjoy your party and thank you so much. Yes my brother, yes my
51:04brother. You've helped me out a huge amount. Yeah. What you have learned here, I hope you
51:08take it into practice and move on with your life. Things will work for you my
51:12brother. I know that things will work for you, okay? Amen. Yes my brother.
51:17Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you Char. I will remember this. Always, always,
51:25always. Take care darling. All right.
51:32But I love them. And they're taking a part of me with them.
51:42Being here in Jamaica has made me realize that I don't need to cry, get angry or just
51:47shut down like whenever I get pissed off or something. So I can open up and talk to
51:52people about how I feel and like listen to what they've got to say as well about stuff.
51:58I'm a bit nervous about going home. Because I went away one person and come back another
52:04person. I don't know really how they'll take me as this. I'm not going back to how I was
52:09because I wasn't happy. No one was happy. And what idiot doesn't want to be happy?
52:13I really hope I've got a new Charlotte back and I can't wait to see her and see how she's
52:22been and how she's changed and what she's been doing and how she looks and it just feels
52:27like I haven't seen her for such a long time. Hello. Hello. Hello. Are you with me?
52:39Christine. I know. Oh, and there's your. Oh, thank you. Oh. Oh, I'm sorry. Thank you.
52:49It's the ashtray. Someone who loves me very much went to Jamaica and got me this ashtray.
52:55Oh, I think it's this. What do you see differently now you're back? I should listen to you more
53:03and take on board what you say. Can you say why we do it? Yeah, help me out and stuff.
53:08What I'd like him to have actually learned over there is a bit of self-discipline and to see a family
53:22operating well. Hello. Hello. Oh, how are you? Ow. Oh, sorry. Have I hurt you? Yeah, bites all over.
53:38Oh, I don't care. Ow. I love you. Oh, you look fantastic. It made me realise I'm so genuinely sorry
53:49about the way that I've made things over the last year and I'm not doing that no more.
53:58That's lovely. I love you too. He was always edgy. There was an edge about him and he seems quite laid
54:04back actually, which is lovely. I think it was just the right time for him to have an experience
54:10like that. He was just getting more and more wound up and I think it just came at the right time.
54:16Amazing, really.
54:17Amazing, really.
