Peppered

So many children today are latchkey kids and/or encounter bullying at

school. The combination of the two is a poignant reminder of why some

children end up in jail later in life. Some don’t, but ought to because they abuse

other children. And their victims often turn to crime themselves or suicide

as Lauren Cartright attempts in this story. Adults need to be more vigilant in

preventing bullying and to pay more attention to their own children to help

find positive resolutions for these issues. This story draws it’s conflict from real

life situations and brings to the front a new kind of vigilante that becomes a

hero for the teen who is being bullied. Find out how as our heroine puts up

her sharpshooter rifle and stands up for helpless Lauren in Peppered.
