GLOBAL ISSUES REFLECTION:

• describe at least one of the issues discussed in as much detail as possible
• what could you do to help solve this issue?
• do you think we have this issue or similar ones here in the U.S? explain why or why not. 

1. one issue that i saw was when the kids were used to sell drugs or get in to gangs.  
2. well i cant do nothing because i don't have the resources that i need. 
3. not really because right here the kids get help from people all around the world. they teach them how to make the right decisions  and to always choose the right because your present depends on your future. in Mexico people cant get the same help because the majority are poor and if the people go that help kids in the U.S are just going to waste their time because the kids are going to do the same thing because that's the only way to live over there.
