You guys are reading Phil real good.He was not in any way a disrespectful kid or teen.He never stole, bullied, scammed or swindled,till he hit 16 maybe 17.Then Nicks influence came with vengeance.Phil totally changed started hanging with Philly guys.This also had to do with Nick moving up.Phil had his 10 guys he hung with in the area one is a superintendent of a large school district in south jersey another is a very successful businessman and freeholder a third is a CEO of a major utilities.Down here in AC the town is so diff from Philly and NY.So what i am saying he did not grow up a hardened career criminal until he was an adult. So when it fell apart he saw that that was it. He was tired of all the shit.This guy and lots of us grew up right across the street from our catholic school and convent on georgia ave.Only 4 guys from ducktown became made men..
