(Cramer)
Quote 2: "If laws are skewed against young folks and public perception is skewed against young folks, it’s that much harder to get involved. It takes extra effort and willpower." (Cramer)
Quote 2 idea: Since people who are young can't change anything until they are of age it gives less of an opportunity to change laws to go in favor of maturity over age.]]> 2022-05-17 17:56:24 UTC https://padlet.com/knovo25/3adkgrp397iil72u/wish/2188088049 knovo25 https://padlet.com/knovo25/3adkgrp397iil72u/wish/2189744752 (Coming of Age)

My thoughts on this article:
This article links to The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian when they mention that children are unique and should be deserving of protection. However, in the book Junior is shown to not be protected when he gets bullied by his reservation mates and at his new school Reardan. The article mentions that kids have no say in laws passed, which in turn some children like Junior will never get their voice heard and nothing will change regarding his experiences.

My thoughts on this article:
This article links to The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian when they explain the difficulties that some children have becoming an adult compared to other children, which includes someone like Junior in the book when he explains that American Indians are supposed to stay in their reservation and not achieve anything for their future.
