When you choose your issue blog: -What is the issue? -Why have you chosen it? -Add pics/links.

I chose to write a biography about child who was forced to be in the army in Myanmar. I chose this issue because I want to know why the children are badly treated and want to understand the feelings of a child soldier. The children are constantly abuducted and forced to be in servitude. I have looked through several websites and I found the Human Rights Watch extremely useful: http://www.hrw.org/news/2002/10/16/children-war

I downloaded several files from other websites. I also looked a bit at the Lord's Resistance Army from this website: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord%27s_Resistance_Army

  2. I checked my Wikipedia source with several other websites to make sure that what they said are accurate, including BBC and CNN.
