Devon Davenport....

I am currently reading the book After by amy efaw. The main character is Devon Davenport. She is a teenager soccor player and a very good one at that. She plays for the varsity soccor team for her highschool. She is a great student. Devon becomes pregant and does not tell any one, not even her own mother. She decides to hide it, until she can not hide it any more. The book starts out with devon laying on her couch. her mother comes home and says that there are police outside of their place because someone threw a baby in the trash. It is soon discovered that the baby is Devons. She is taken to the hospital where it is proven that she did have a child. I believe that if you are going to throw your own child into the trash can that you deserve what ever punishment that you get. I don't care if you are a teenage athlete. Devon probably thought that if she did tell anyone that she was pregant that they would all think badly of her. So instead she decided that she would keep it a sercet and just throw that child away that yesterdays trash. I think that Devon is not worthy of any praise. I think that she should tried as an adult because her crime is so horrible. Devon Davenport she go away for a very long time. But I am only 90 pages into the book so maybe I will change my mind, but i doubt that.
