If you followed the show you would see it for one is a comedy and also adresses the causes behind the behaviour namely single parent families lacking support and in the case of Jock, an abusive alcoholic father who does not provide a safe space or nurture their childs innate abilities.

It is not a set of instructions. If you watched Top Boy and wanted to sell drugs then you missed the point.
