Breach of Article 1- Abomination by Robert Swindells

Breach means not having followed it or broken it.

 Article 01 - All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

-means no one is born different from others- can't be born into slavery and kept in a cage.

-you have access to basic human rights- food, water, and shelter.

Martha- born into a religious cult, has basic rights but not personal freedom. Martha is treated like a slave by her parents. Not allowed friends because of the righteous. Not allowed radio.

Abomination/Jim- born and kept in a cage, not allowed outside. Has basic human rights. Lost rights to education, love, freedom, and socialization. Forbidden to see his mum.

Jim's trauma will lead him to not have a normal life.

Since Martha lived with her sister, she got new clothes and was granted freedom.

The story builds suspense.

We forgive Martha for keeping the secret about Jim because she is also suffering.

Martha is bullied in school and at home.

And she let her kid live in a cage?... She doesn't know! page 146

Communication

Technology has changed the way we communicate. In the past 150 years, communication technology has changed greatly, making our life look effortless compared to how it was.

Forms of communication have changed from immobile telephones connected to house walls to mobile phones that you pack in your pocket all day. We also used to send letters through posts, but now we get to send them through e-mail. Social media is a way to share what we want to share on the internet, which we didn't have before. People used to play games using the arcade, but games and entertainment have evolved too. We play games on computers, phones, consoles etc. which we didn't have until recently.

In conclusion, communication has changed so much that it is barely recognisable from how it was before.
