A New Conscience and an Ancient Evil

Jane Addams

Capitolo 79

there is anything particularly disgusting and painful in personal
knowledge with his/her victims;  a disgust and anguish that sometimes
you fall to nervous breakdown and actual. A separate English has
recently writing "that sober-minded people that, from the motives for the pity,
you/he/she has looked at the horrendous bad height in the face, you/he/she has often affirmed that
nothing in their experience is so almost seemed to threaten them with a
loss of reason."

Nevertheless, this comparative lack of philanthropic effort is the more
extraordinary because the middle age of the recruits to prostitution is
between sixteen and eighteen years, the age to which I/you/they are still girls
minors under the law in in comparison to all the matters of ownership. We allow a
young person to determine for her if or not she will live more anymore this
abominable life, even if if she resolves to be a thief her the wish, if
possible, is learned and it imprisoned;  if she becomes a vagabond her
you/he/she will be contained;  even if she becomes a professional mendicant, her the wish
interferes with;  but the decision to conduct this bad life, disastrous
likewise to the community and she, even if well known to the police,
it is openly permitted. If a man has grabbed on a moment of the weakness in a
girl and it got his/her approval, even if she can be since then in then in atrocious
need of help that she has put out of every protection of the law. The courts
supposes that such girl has intentionally decided for that and she
because she is not "of the chaste life and precedent and character", she is lost
to every decency. He/she anchors every human being he/she knows deep down in his/her heart that
its his/her own moral energy declines and fluxes that he could not fairly be judged
his/her give times of defeat, and that after revealing moments of the weakness,
even if it shocked and it frightened, he is the same human being, while fighting
as he did before. Nevertheless in of the states, a small girl as youth as
ten years adult can take this irreversible decision for her.
