If that was me….

Something that really impacted me was the tour of the juvenile detention center. During the tour they explained that some kids are stuck in these gross, claustrophobic like cells 23 hours in a day because they did something bad while there. Also, I saw some girls my age and I thought how I would be in that position; scared, miserable, alone and no longer myself. Plus the ages there run from 10-18 years old. Ten years old and in a jail; what could lead someone to that at such a young age? And if they felt they had no other choice, then when they leave what do they have to go back to? I think more people should become aware of what’s happening in this world and they should actually do something.
