A Day in the Life: Big Brothers Big Sisters

[@JosueRodriguezsharon]

I am a big brother, as an engineer I have realized there are many kids who need an adult as a role model.

[@talitamo7465]

Agreed !!!!

[@slashbash1347]

Fantastic! I know you'll just modestly dismiss this comment but you're amazing.

[@zerodddog5052]

my son is in this program. this made me cry

[@MrLouisorta]

This makes me happy. I want to be a mentor. I want to be someone lighthouse.

[@slashbash1347]

You got it?

[@keishapolk1118]

Great program! I'm 40 now but I had an amazing big sister!

[@thegamingoboist2702]

I’m going camping with mine Friday

[@brooklynanimates6363]

My mom signed me up for it. Im very exited! It looks very beautiful and fun! 👍

[@shadow-ld7ib]

I'm a kid I'm thinking about doing it because I don't get to see my real brothers and sisters

[@Junejune-rb6qd]

Imma be a big brother one day and I can’t wait to help them with anything life’s throws at them especially high school 🫡

[@AyyShok]

I might do this cause I don't have any brothers or sisters so it will be fun

[@myangelbeatsgammingtoo5044]

this program is so darn fun

[@hey-qc8no]

Do you have any other advice abt it I’m going to talk to my mom abt it

[@deltafuze8656]

I'm currently with my big brother and out of the 52 weeks in a year he's here for 18 and he's supposed to be here every week but he cant come because he's at work or sick or goes to the superbowl or wants to party. They make you wait a year for them to barely even come. We got tickets to see Ottawa senators, couldn't go he was busy, and we had the chance to see the Harlem globetrotters play and meet them as well...He was also busy. I want to either get a different one and wait a year or dont see him anymore and just forget it for the rest of my life.

[@demonqueen3886]

That happened with me and my big sister she was always sick or working and honestly she was really boring to be around

[@user-cl5nu7ox3o]

i’m sorry :( keep trying! there are better big brothers/big sisters out there

[@NoName-bh4pf]

I hope your situation worked out.

[@Jackariah-N.]

@@gurk2644 I will avenge your honor as a "Big" (I'll lyk how it goes lol)

[@Jackariah-N.]

I have known about this program since I was young and have always wanted to take part and be a big brother but I don't k ow where to begin and how to go about it

[@lolgruu]

I need to do this because I get mad because I’m not really together with my family

[@basicpeach4912]

[@carawells3658]

[@theanonymouscat5062]

This is nice and all but what happens when it ends and we have to say goodbye?

[@mingoringo_]

I'm sure if you both develop a strong bond, you will be able to stay in contact for a very long time, maybe for life. They may not be your big, but they can still be your friend and hang out.

[@mikehunt3932]

I am looking for my big brother I had in elementary school.

[@EclipsetheNightwing]

My classmate davin said he's in this

[@ryhunter1011]

Stop I wish I had a role model but my parents would never let me enter this programme

[@dylan3315]

Be wary...this video is deceptive. It only shows kids who are passionate and interested in the program. The truth is, you will often be matched with a little who is highly deficient socially who requires more work and effort than you may be able to give. There are also plenty of kids who were forced into the program by their parents and aren't actually interested in doing it. I was just wanting someone like the video, a kid to mentor and be a big brother to, but instead, I was first placed with a teenager who could barely form sentences, and the second time I was given a younger teen who smelled like he hadn't showered in a week, and had trouble socializing from being homeschooled. You've been warned.

[@dfw.tiana222]

I have this

[@draygerard4550]

75% more likely to get a bachelors degree?? what about the trades? those are legit jobs that often make far more money

[@DalV]

A trade is a great career. But a bachelors helps give you the skills to be the owner. Dream big!

[@henayoutubechannel1341]

Nice Nice Nice

[@stwberrydonutz]

I can't believe I have to do this stupid thing.

[@kalico1642]
