Whip

The boat is pushed along genteelly and guided by the wind, verses being instructed and forced by a whip which draws nothing but pain and suffering.

Hearing the statistics about the amounts of violence and abuse that occurs during high school did not shock me at all. As teenagers are beginning to do more adult-like behaviors at earlier ages, their attitudes and behaviors towards violence and abuse are developing and being implemented earlier.

the traffickers, so what can they do? They can do anything except continue spreading this disease. Like slaves body were whipped and abused, sex trafficking victims’ bodies are abused internally as well as externally. They might not be whipped with a whip like they did back during the slavery time, but they do get hit by their owners. Many are induced with drugs with needles and cocaine. Also like how some slaves back in the day were raped and molested by their owner, many of the victims of…
