Tekica opened the browser and started browsing missing children, she read many articles about them. She got to the end of the google page and realized that she skipped some of the websites. So she opened the websites and started reading about other missing children. Each website had the same person. Oh my gosh. What? She thought, just as Sean raged into her house. "Why does the websites say your missing? Tekica, what 's going on. Do you know anything about this," he realized tears in her eyes, "are you okay? We 'll figure all this out. Don 't worry." Through her sobbing she found words to say, "Sean, I 'd be lying if I told you I was okay. I 'd be lying if I said I knew what was going on." It all hit her at once, what if this isn 't my family? Why have they been lying to me? If this isn 't my family, then who is? This can 't be real.

It wasn't just that it was a tattoo parlor -- that he could have handled, although gods know he probably he have balked at even the most vanilla of establishments; no. Pairo had gone and taken him to one of the roughest, toughest, most notorious tattoo parlors in Yorkshin, the Inked and Slashed, where the only thing that ever managed to successfully overcome the smell of stale vomit in the air was the cigarette smoke that hung over the place like a perpetual cloud. The Inked and Slashed was the place to go if you were…

    Ten year old, Lafayette Rivers exclaims enthusiastically in Alex Kotlowitz’ 1992 biography There Are No Children Here, “If I grow up, I’d like to be a bus driver”. Sophomore year, in Honors English, we were reading out loud in class when this aspiration of a lower-income, innocent child, was lethargically muttered by a classmate, and to my dismay, I began to cry. I was saddened by the fact Naperville was less than 60 miles away from Chicago, yet my peers knew so little of what too many city children, like Lafayette who lived in Cabrini Green, had to endure. What broke my spirit, was that my peers were only sympathizing for that class period and would go on with their daily lives, giving no second thought to children who are less fortunate, who have to give so much just to help their families survive, and who are not even sure they will have the opportunity to grow up.…
