She is 19 years old. She was telling me about her dreams for her life. “I want to keep working in the chocolate company,” she said, “then I can save enough money to go to the university and study law. I might go into police work.” Later in our conversation I asked, “So, how did it all begin?” “When I was very young,” she replied, “my step-father began to come to my room at night. He did things to me. It was always sex. When I got much older, almost 14 years old, I began to do sex work in the bars. Because I was younger than the other women, I made good money, but it was hard work being up all night and trying to stay awake in school the next day. It was dangerous, too. I was sometimes raped and beaten when I left the bars and the men who attacked me would steal my money.” Report This Posthttps://www.kintera.com/accounttempfiles/account401803/images/natividad.jpg
