I lived by it when I was on the wrong side of the law. Try applying it to your life: 1) Don't leave your friends in the lurch; back them up 2) Don't harm woman or children 3) Don't steal from poor people. NOTE: I have seen all three of those trodden underfoot by so-called law abiding citizens. You don't have to be in Jail or have a criminal record to be a crook!

It's amazing how someone's life story can really captivate you I enjoyed this

You are now whats commonly known as, "A success of society." Well done you ... you wear it well. 😀

Being german speaking I looked up "criminal code" in Wikipedia. It says: "Typically a criminal code will contain offenses which are recognised in the jurisdiction, penalties which might be imposed for these offenses and some general provisions". Now the title makes full sense to me after I listened to Andrew. He really has courage and a good heart. I am very happy for him that he could turn his life around. I know how it feels to be worried that the police finds out ones crimes. I got rid of my worries too a long time ago. Thank you for your story.

I love how supportive the comments are in this video, and all Tedx talks.

Well done Andrew. The strength of character it takes to change ones life so dramatically cannot be underestimated.

What a story. Love it. Thanks for sharing it. Onward!

not sure which is more impressive, turning away from the only life he knew, his dedication to finding some sort of truth, or the decision to have not only turned away from the life, but to become the complete opposite. Bravo.

Thank you Andrew for taking a shot at living fresh at being a blessing to the free world. You are a true success story. :)

Thank you for sharing this incredible personal story with all of KZread. You are a real inspiration. I believe every person can create a new tomorrow for himself and others. It doesn't really matter what happened the day or year before, or the actions one committed. It takes courage to change, and a firm belief that it is possible and within one's reach. Congratulation.

Outstanding story! Thanks for sharing Andrew.

One side of this story is, how it is possible to change the way you live your life. But as I see it, partially because I work within this field, half this story is about how life decisions of other people, especially your parents, influence the life of their children unintentionally. And how reckless or careless decisions can force your child on a path of crime. First the birth-mother, who herself was 'forced' into a decision by ridiculous social standards and fear to be abandoned by those she believes she needs if she stayed with her child. Her family that could very easily described as unsupportative and would rather leave an innocent child abandoned than accepting that one of their family members made a mistake. But let me tell you: it's not the childs fault that her/his mother had an affair. Then there's the adoptive parents, who didn't tell their child the truth. A truth that could have made life easier for both sides. Then there's the adoptive mother who wasn't upfront with her intentions. Sure, many believe you need to protect your children from unconvenient truths. But let me tell you this: Children can handle the truth. They can handle truth usually better than what happens after the lie gets busted. And lies, especially these kind of lies, get busted sooner or later.

The insight to criminal and criminal code breakers split in jail is so true. Anyone who has hurt children or women is segregated because everyone else would hurt them

What a fantastic man huge kudos to growing from a boy into a man.

Ted is the Teen's favorite channel, thnx

Loved listening to Andrew's story. Warmed my heart ❤
