Well, you know - it just makes me uneasy because it's such a sudden change, you know? It's like 0-60 in under three seconds.
I think Patrick is capable of judging for himself what is good and what is not, but with the people around him (like Travis and William) it might be a negative influence. I'm not saying either of those boys would put any pressure on him at all, I'm just saying that in that environment, as soon as someone says, "Oh, go on - just this once" it's easy for it to become a habit.
