a. Human trafficking is an ongoing process.

Traffickers prey on victims or lure them for their own

gain. It is a criminal offense and a violation of human rights, as well as a threat to human dignity
and national development. They accomplish this by recruiting, transporting, harboring, and
receiving. The goal of this illegal act is to exploit.
b. I want to help victims of child labor, as well as children who have been abused or exploited
online. These victims have suffered emotional and psychological abuse as a result of being
manipulated into doing something that violated their human rights. Some may be baffled as to
why these victims failed or were unable to escape. The reason for this is that human traffickers
employ a variety of methods, including Threats, force, abduction, deception, abuse of power,
and payment or benefits are common tactics used by traffickers. They strike when they notice or
discover of a person's weakness.

As a result, my first step as a student would be to raise awareness and knowledge about this
issue, followed by supporting a campaign to advocate for our human rights. Because nobody has
the authority to take away our human rights.

1. I am the type of person who likes deep talks, perhaps the so-called "heart-to-heart talk."
The mere thought of having to share my inner self and personal traits with others
provides me with the opportunity to understand and connect with others. As a significant
partner, I would like to apply this connection between us because I believe it would both
make us understand and respect each other and maybe make us comfortable as well.
Although meeting your significant other on social networking sites has been increasing,
which I do not disagree with because, as they say, love moves in a mysterious way, for
me, having to meet them personally or get to know them personally would be better, and
we could use SNS as a communication tool to continue to get to know each other. Sherry
Turkle points out how face-to-face conversation unfolds slowly. It teaches patience, and
that conversation with others helps us learn and converse with ourselves as well.
2. I somehow agree with Dr. Chen’s research since, even though I am not the type of person
who likes to post much in my social media account, it also allows me to interact with my
friends in social media, and with that, there is somehow a sense of connection and
belongness, especially since most of us share common interests and hobbies. This is also
due to the fact that we do not disclose our personal information much.

In relation, I can also relate to you, Josephine, in being individualistic, especially when it comes
to social media. To the point that others told me that I only post once in a blue moon.

Similarly, I believe the connections you have, Jhuryne, are with your friends as well, because
like you, I only share some of my interests and hobbies once I get to know the person or if it's
someone close to me.
