Ridge highways considered most dangerous roads in all of Southeast Missouri. “Why is this?” do you ask. Well‚ when that bell rings at 3:13 Oak Ridge becomes a living hell.

They have cell phones‚ and they are texting at this very moment while you are meeting them in the other lane. It is a scary thought‚ I know. One of the main reasons kids text and drive is because they think that when

irony because what the narrator says is not what the reader knows to be true; the reader knows that these skills are of little or no importance in our society.

One recurring problem is hunger. It is one thing to not have food but another to starve your children. “Lying on the mattress next to Mom was one of those huge family -size Hershey chocolate bars‚ the shiny silver wrapper paper pulled back and torn away” (Walls 174).
