While looking at the IOL news i came across an article called Mercy for gran who filmed kids’ ‘sex’ act, by Rabbie Serumula in Alexandra,Africa. In Alexandra, a 68 year-old woman who had a daycare business was informed of a 2 year-old boy and a 5 year-old girl going to the restroom and contorting to sexual acts. A worker of hers informed her of the kids actions, so she decided it best to take the situation into her own hands. *Victoria the woman whom took the video showed it to the parents of the children, explaining to them how she couldn't allow such conduct in her daycare, and how they couldn't come back with their children. The parent's got angry so decided it best to let federal officers handle the situation, after this report *Victoria was then charged with compelled rape. *Victorias lawyer bargained her sentence after she pleaded guilty. The bargain entitled a sentenced of five years, a suspended sentence, and she is now a nationally known sexual offenders.
Though this event was tragic and could have been handle better in many different ways it's a good article to show you how it connects with Social Science. For starters, in ones mind one automatically groups others from their own perspectives and thoughts and groups them socially, without really knowing them. Secondly, the parents felt it necessary to involve law enforcements ,because politically *Victoria had committed a crime. Thirdly, the choice that *Victoria made could have been a cultural belief, feeling like it was a sin for the children to have committed such acts and should have been punished. Lastly, the actions of *Victoria affected her economically, she is now a nationally registered sex offender and will find it difficult to find a job due to the fact that they shut down her business.
