But my interpretation of this story is about the real world that goes on around us today involving women. At the young age of 15, we all now the saying of not speaking to strangers but when someone is constantly begging someone to go on a ride with them and could potentially go on a dangerous ride with them is something you see today. Men try their hardest to take advantage of women everyday. Not saying every man intentions are to harm someone but when a man at the drive thru says, \u201cGonna get you babe\u201d then shows up at her house is pretty creepy. At her young age it\u2019s cool to be hanging around either girl or boys that are older to portray a cool image of herself for the friends around her but also isn\u2019t smart as well. The story is warning young girls of signs like these to help them say no and seek help instead of trying to do things on their own. Young people make mistakes in life but some mistake can\u2019t be taken back once done.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the interpretation of the story \u201cWhere Are You Going, Where Have You Been\u201d by Rena Korb, she interpreted that the story is an, enjoyed as a finely crafted story.
