Our speaker talked about her experience of being a child protector, This talk was not too interesting for me as I didn’t find anything compelling about her story. It was mostly just facts and there she didn’t really talk about her personal connection with the topic. However, I was slightly interested by the topic of child protection as I had never heard about it before. I was interested in how the various ways they help protect Children, whose rights are being violated. This experience deepened my understanding of the story as she gave some cases of the kids she dealt with. I never really understood the extent to which child abuse was happening. She gave us an example of this kid, whose parents locked her in a washing machine, and then turned it on. This really shocked me and it made me appreciate the work these officers were doing. This session helped me understand what it means to think like a writer as I was able to analyze the personal perspective of the speaker even though she barely gave any personal opinions. I had to ask her appropriate questions to try and coax her to tell us some information. In the end some of the questions like “Why did you get into Child Protection?” made her give some personal perspective to child protection but I still think that she should have mentioned it more.
