    Unfortunately, James never lived to see Thelma get married to Keith, and having both him and Florida's first grandchild.

    At that time, Thelma was still a senior in high school. If she went with Larry out to Los Angeles, she would have gone to either UCLA or else USC. But she would have had to wait until she graduated from high school first. That's why I don't think that Florida and James wouldn't allow her to go out to California in order for her to be with Larry. Suppose it didn't work out? Then Thelma would be crawling back home to Chicago. And even today, the cost of living anywhere in California is so high that it's not even funny.

      No, Keith was much better than Larry, because Keith actually cared about Thelma and it wasn’t all about him. Where is Keith? It was all about him.

      In my opinion, nothing wrong with Larry. It wasn’t Thelma’s time to marry. She still young and a lot more education to get and she didn’t want to leave her family especially a loving and caring family .

    Thelma would have been pregnant with two baby daddies already. She dated a 21 year old at 16, and a 42 year old at 17. We know JJ would have kids all over the hood, the way he was carrying on.
