.... the right to attend school. Joe remembers one time “ ‘Walking home late at night from the movies, when a bunch of kids hiding behind bushes jumped out and beat him up’�… “The parents of these children do nothing about this torment because they assume his mother was a prostitute, so they feel he deserves it� (DeBonis 60-61).
