Shadow Child: A third child who is in hiding from the population police.  Baron: A very rich person  [Philip] P.p: The population police the people who check houses that they suspect there is a third child. Like actual police but they only make sure the population is under controll. (Ericka)
 * __Vocabulary:__**

Genocide the deliberate and systematic extermination of a national, racial, political, or culturalgroup. (Bri)

__**Setting:**__ In the middle of a forest(brad) in the forest during the 21th century in a over popualtated country in a new development of housing around in the main land far from the city or town (ernesto) first it starts out as a forest but construction happens then its a suburban neigborhood(alex) in a forest in the middle of no where so the population police dont find him. (fanoula) In his atic\room where he has to sleep\live in to hide from the population police. (Ericka) In his attic where he hides from the population police (cynthia) in his attic that he lives in and jens house(trent)

I think it was somewhere in texasx, judged by the way they were talking, in the middle of a forest. Or something. So the population police couldn't find him. I think it was around 1990's, That's my best guess Well early 1990's-2000's. (Bri)

The story starts in a forest farm, but as the story progresses, the forest farm turns into a forest farm beside a big suburban neighborhood full of rich barons and many families of 4, and maybe more then one with 5. [Philip]

It is in a forest farm community where rich barons live in a neighbourhood and luke spends most of his time in his room which is the attic and in jen's house.

(Shabnam)
that a boy named luke spends his time in his house hideing from this new law called the population law that you are only allowed only 2 childern per family cause of the goverment thinking that the country is going to run out of food so he is called a shadow child(Ernesto) luke is cramped in his room he cant go out side or even go down stairs in the living room he used to be able to but now that the forest is a town he can't go anywhere(alex) Luke is a shdaow child and because of that he has to go into hiding so the population police dont find him and 40 shadow children get killed at the rally trying to get freedom. (fanoula) [Farah] The issues is there is a boy named Luke and he is a shadow child so he can't go anywhere because the population police will find him, and because their running out of food. So he sees a girls face and he goes to their house and she introducesher her self and her name is Jen, and so they meet and talk about how to not be a shadow child, and she wants to go to the the population police but Luke does not want to get involved in it. [Farah]
 * __Issues:__** Luke is not allowed to go outside or do anything he just has to stay inside all day long(Brad)

One issue is that Luke can't go anywhere because he is a shadow child and he stays inside all day long until his parents come and there are many more shadow children who want freedom from the government and population police like to have as many children they want and they can be free.

(Shabnam)
__**Conflicts:**__ manvsman becuse the law that man has made and luke is fighting that law (Ernesto) I agree with Ernesto the conflict is man vs law\man because she is trying to overthow the population police. (Ericka)

Man vs Himself- Luke is afraid to go to the rally, and wins the battle against himself and decides not to go. Man vs man- Luke hates the population law and argues with his dad about it. [Philip]

I think it's Man vs. Society. Because Luke is supposed to be non-exsistent. Accoring to laws. But he is, and the laws of SOCIETY say he's illegal. (Bri)

I think it is man vs. man becasue Luke doesn't like the population police and their government and he and jen want the freedom and it is also man vs himself becasue Luke is too strike on him with the population police and the government like they are seeing you through the computer and other stuff like that and like he should go to the rally if he wants too.

(Shabanm)
__**Characters:**__ Luke is a shadow child that is not allowed to go outside or do anything(Brad) luke jen jens father lukes father his mother mark and mathew (Ernesto) luke's mother she loves luke so much and she doesn't want luke to get caught thats why she imprisons him in his room(alex) Jen: Jen is a shadow child who is really risky and very brave, and she doesn't care about dying.
