The legal source that I am using speaks about sex trafficking and prostitution. The article speaks about how minors are being treated as offenders instead of victims Keep in mind that these victims go through sexual mental and physical abuse and they are vulnerable to pimps and traffickers. According to the article they say that â In order to stop the perpetuation and revictimization of sexually exploited youth, states should join the movement in passing safe Harbor laws, modeled on existing New York Lawâ so i’m assuming that more support is needed to help these kids get the support that they need to heal.In the article there was a girl named Nicolette who was Arrested for prostitution In New York and this wasnt the first time She was arrested in another city and was bailed out by her trafficker .The article made me understand that after her second arrest she was convicted as a juvenile delinquent And was sent to a secure detention Facility In the New York State the age of consent is 17 years old however âNicolette was only twelve years old at the time of arrest and as a twelve-year-old Nicolette was unable to even consent to sex let alone sell itâ Minors forced into prostitution are in between the prostitution laws And sexual activity laws. If a minor is unable to give consent to sex according to the state age consent law then that form of sex is considered as rape especially each time that child is being purchased. What makes me sad is that there are some juveniles that are being treated as Adult offenders because of their own sexual abuse while the person who is buying them is going scot free which is not fair if you ask me because that is the main reason why we have a lot of mentally Ill people in the streets because they have been abused over and over again without anyone to defend them . The reason why I use this legal source Is because some of these girls are often told Sweet lies so that they can fall into the Trap of prostitution and once they fall into that trap they realize that it is too late. There are some girls who are of age to give consent to these things that are spoken to boys That they think that actually likes them and they end up falling into a toxic relationship to the point of being mistreated, abused and guilt-tripped into doing things that they don’t want to do in the name of love.In certain countries young girls Are sometimes told that the job that they’re going to do will help their families not knowing that that job that they are getting into is a hell fire.

While reading the article I was able to learn a few things for example the more you accept the pickiness of readers the more your writing can be changed where people can actually get the point that you are trying to prove. I was also able to know what a convention was a particular way that something is done in the text he says ” Notice that Iâm not saying that thereâs a particular right or wrong way to use convention in my writingâif the modern U.S. academic system had evolved from a primarily African or Asian or Latin American cultural consciousness instead of a European one, conventions for writing would probably be very different. Thatâs why theyâre conventions and not rules”. I never though that deep when it came to reading or writing. I have a few quotes that I had used in my unit three writing and ones of them came to mind when I was reading the article and it was from a Ted Talk spoken by Terri Orbuch and she was talking about differentiating love from lust and as she was explaining the difference I was very surprised at what I was hearing because there are so many ways that heart break could have been prevented. While describing love in a relationship I started to realize how much I don’t really see the signs in the relationships that I have seen around me , one of the signs was ” Love is when you guys are intertwined and no longer just about one person its we” , the reason why this quote touched me is because of the fact that in relationships today you hear the couple talk more about the significant other by themselves and not about the both of them together being that they are in this together. Because like people say there is no I in team.
While writing my essay for unit 2 I learned that in order for a relationship to successed love has to be center of the relationship because if not then your heart will eventually get broken and cause you to be bitter and label everyone else as heart breakers. And the way that I learned about how to have a successful relationship I would like for all the youths to learn what I learned because the trend today is that everyone wants to have a relationship but are afraid to have one because their hearts have been broken before and now all boys/girls are heart breakers. The genre that I think that would best reach the youth is Ted Talks because thats how I was able to learn from people who actually take the time to explain things and understand what is going one. Youths like myself like to listen to people who experience things and talks about things that people around us don’t normally talk about. I intend to start sharing my genre by using the content that was used in my essay then I plan on using more Ted Talks to show as a collaboration to give the youth enough options to hear what they need to hear to help them with their love lives.
