First, The American Dream is not something that you are handed it is something you work for. Some people are born into wealthy families and they do not need to work for success. Jay Gatsby was snidely profiled and they said, "I thought you inherited your money." (Ch 5) People assumed that because of his wealth he was privileged. They were wrong, Gatsby worked for his money even though he may of not always had the best

This assignment will describe the forms of abuse which may be experienced by adults; describing indicators that abuse may be happening to adults. It will then look at factors that may lead to abusive situations and assess the possible immediate effects of two different forms of abuse. The abuse that will be specifically looked at will be sexual and financial abuse, further extending by evaluating the potential long term effects of the two types of abuse.

The American Dream can be lived by anyone who tries to make due with what they can afford at the time they are in and the situation that’s upon them.

The textbook explains that adolescent victims are at a higher risk of suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, juvenile arrest and involvement in the justice system, mental health issues like stress, depression, eating disorders, anxiety, and suicidal ideations, more likely to suffer from low self esteem. These problems are likely to be carried along into adulthood (as shown in Girl Trouble). Adolescent victims are also at a higher risk of being suicidal as adults, being abused again, and having more psychological and physical problems. When children or adolescents are victimized, the effects are harmful and can be carried with them through the rest of their

The statistical evidence of young female juveniles describes by journalist Linda Lowen. Lowen says young girls who were subjected to many different mental health issues and some form of abuse have often led to delinquent conduct. Abuse, such as, physical, mental, sexual, and emotional abuse is the most commonplace behind a juvenile’s girl’s negative behavior. In the United States, seventy-three percent of young girls have been abused. Just over forty percent of young girls have been victims of sexual assault or rape. Girls who have been abused or neglected are twice as likely to be arrested as other girls (Lowen, 2014).

Every year, hundreds of girls are taken advantage of and sold into prostitution. Sexual predators, especially in America, prey upon girls who are on the streets alone (usually due to problems at home). One such target was thirteen year old Salina, who lived in Las Vegas with her mother when personal distress caused her to run away from home. While detached from her family, Salina was picked up by a couple who forced her into sex work. It was clear that if she did not obey, went back home, or kept any of the money she earned, she would be beaten and possibly killed. But she was not held in a brothel or forced to walk the streets; no, this method is used by millions of people on a daily basis- the internet.

The incidence and prevalence data is also still scarce, and there is no consensus on the current estimates. The estimates focus on youth who are at risk for sex trafficking contrary to the actual victims. Some groups have carried out research on the subsets and subpopulations of the victims to provide an understanding of the scale and nature. The arrest records for example in 2009 data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Uniform Crime Reporting among other bodies estimates that about 1400 minors were arrested for prostitution and commercial vice in the U.S that year. Other organizations such as Human Trafficking Task Force do not have the exact number of children involved. Another approach to estimation is the victim identification by groups such as health care providers, services providers, law enforcement agencies and school personnel. More research has to be carried out to understand and give the exact number and extent of child sex trafficking as many cases have gone

prostitution has became one of the leading roles in recruiting young children to serve as a drug

The belief of the American dream of becoming rich in America has been impractical due to economic classes in today's modern times. An article about achieving the American dream by Michael Gonchar states, “The decks have been stacked against not only the lower class but also the lower middle class”. The problems that the economic class creates in achieving the American dream is drastically notable.

These youth rarely have the chance to experience the simple joy of being teenagers. They often suffer pain, humiliation and degradation in the hands of their pimps and costumers. Pimps are the men or women ho rape or take the illegal custody of these kids to sell them in the world of prostitution. Costumers or you could said the consumers are usually reach people (politics), gangs and sometime just regular mans from the community who don’t care about the suffering of this youth but to satisfy their own sexual need. The effect of juvenile prostitution in our society is getting worst and victims of juvenile prostitution will often abuse their own children, which is way juvenile prostitution has risen to such an unbelievable level.

The situation in Hong Kong parallels a growing trend in the US. The year 2003 saw a 70 percent rise in the number of teen prostitutes who come from middle to upper-middle class families and have never suffered abuse or mistreatment.

Characteristics of runaway’s who are victimized are the following: ‘runaways twelve years of age and under were more likely to be sexually exploited than runaways age thirteen to seventeen.’ ‘Runaways without a secure place to stay were more likely to be sexually exploited than runaways who stayed with friends or other family members.’ (Flowers, 2001
