Question #2

I believe that a relevent issue that occures in the book and in real life is peer pressure. Peer perssure is a strong thing when your in middle school and high school and still sometimes when your out of school. Most people are pressuring her to get the tattoo but she doesnt really want too. She feels like shes an outcast but still does not want to be branded with something that is ruining peoples lives. Its kinda like drugs, drugs ruin peopels lives but yet everyday friends are pressuring friends to do them. She finally finds a place belong too, which is with the other people that do not have the tattoo..I belive if they were not in her school she would have went back and got that tattoo.
