A Teen's Third-World America Montoya has to walk 30 miles (45 km) every day for school. Because of the bad landscape it is harder for him to go to school. He has to wake up at 6 am and spend 2 or 3 hours to get to school. It feels horrible, when we go to school it takes us a maximum of 1 hour. He lives in a neighborhood that uses lots of drugs. Montoya needs clean water, sewers, good roads, and electricity. If you wondered why Montoya has such a harsh life, it is because he is a Native American who lives in a reservation with a really bad environment. Montoya is 20 years old and he takes after school activities so he stays away from home. On his reservation the most dangerous place is the broken down public pool. People take their kids there to get them drunk. He says they should either fix it or blow it up. His neighbors probably take drugs all the time to waste money and time. You can understand that he clearly lives in a very bad environment for sure. Anybody should consider themselves lucky if they don't live in that type of environment. Maybe we can help them some way, if its not too late.
