FEATURE ARTICLE DRAFT 2

DON'T HURT THE KIDS !!!!!

Child abuse is a serious case that kids go though.Most of the time the abuse comes from the people that are in your life the most like your parents or any family member.I am writing this piece to show that child abuse has to stop and that it hurts the people you love and care for.
Many of the kids that are being raped or abused are now in jail ,a hospital,or are abusing their own children.Children that are abused are scared for life.This is what my mom thinks of abusing kids "I'm all about showing kids their wrong but putting hands on a child and hurting them for small reasons".She is a mom of 3 and a older sister of 4.
Also the abuser does not always have a reson to hit or strike the child the reason is they are mad and need to get out their angry.This is what my dad had to say about abuse "it should not happen".I agree.
I hope that this has influenced people to stop the abuse.For the people that are abused stop and say something.STOP THE ABUSE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who can i interview and where can i find information?

I would interview a person that has gone through abuse as a child or rape. Also i would interview children that is old enough to speak about rape or abuse that they are going though or had been though. I would interview these people because they know how it is to be in those type of situations.Plus there are many people that like to speak up about their situations.

I can find this information about abuse and rape at

Gatherings

People have act as if they have no care in the world. People act crazy and fun. These gatherings are were you go out with your friends and behave silly. I like the way they act because when you are with your friends you can act like your self. I cant wait until i go to those gatherings with me and my friends.
