Create a visually appealing image that metaphorically represents the concept of crossing borders. In this scene, display a vast landscape with diverse geographical features such as mountains, rivers, and prairies, indicating different regions or countries. Show an individual, a middle-aged South Asian woman, standing at a crossroads contemplating her path. She's carrying a backpack that seems filled with memories and experiences, signifying her intent to cross the border. However, her expression should be thoughtful, implying both anticipation and apprehension, to depict how border crossing can affect individuals.

Choose a selection from the crossing borders unit. Write a short explanation of how one of the individuals in this selection is affected by a border crossing. Use specific examples or details to support your answer.

are you a student at Connections Academy?

Don't listen to Angel. Listen to Stitch and Hugh. The story doesn't follow Laetitia but her brother and mother. The question was "Write a short explanation of how one of the individuals in this selection is affected by a border crossing".

Laetitia was not affected because the story did not show that.
Laetitia leaves her home because she is bored there not because of her boyfriend. Her mother is affected because she prides being Blackfoot.

Her mother can't pass the border because the guard is asking her citizenship and they only allow American or Canadian. They only allow Laetitia's mother to pass because there is a network van broadcasting what's going on at the border patrol.

You can get why they let her mother pass.
