baby boy

“ Ahh, so you’re having a boy,” she said. “That will make Salieu very happy.”(pg.75)  This  is a very sad thing to say to a twelve year old girl who is giving birth to her rapist's baby. This is sad because in Canada this guy would have been charged and in jail for rape. In canada she could have had an abortion where she could have had the baby killed inside her and she wouldn’t have had to give birth.

I think that rape is wrong and that person should be punished for it. Lots of kid don't the health care that they need and they get sick and lots dies. Also, there are plenty of kids around the world who are sexually abused and they cannot say anything because they are told not to say anything and they don’t because they are deeply scared. Or they get threatened that they would hurt them or someone they love
