I'am an up and coming advocate. My reasons: I have gone through abuse. I'am very empathtic with people who hurt or are being hurt. When I see a little kid getting hurt I dont just stand there like everyone else. I take action! I get between the person and the victim sfter i've called 911 and I go into a complete tirade! And I dont dhut up until that persons safe! and if they beat me down I'll just get right backup!
