Why did you select this event? - I selected this, because...I believe that this is a very good story that I can do in the timing of an hour as well as it being a very interesting and unique story no one has every heard or doesn’t hear of that often.
| How did it change you?
- At first I was very upset and angry__, but afterward I confronted my mom about it I felt that I was doing the right thing and standing for what I thought was wrong no matter how bad it was hurting me_. I realized I would never do such a thing in front of my kids and also how much I actually love my brothers and instead of learning how to defend my family from my own family I could have been in school learning something that had to do with education and that would benefit me in the future.
