Computer in the campo...

So, big news on a happier note. Leticia has a labtop computer! She is a senior in high school and her family thinks it is a good investment for a future job. She is adopted and the only child of an elderly couple who has a store here. (but before u get swept away with ´wow what an amazing family´ as my first months in site always had that naivity, she was treated like an adopted child, ´put to work endlessly, sometimes hit with the leather cow whip they have here). But Leticia has a computer WITH INTERNET!!!!!!!! you can buy this inserted wireless device that is through your telephone company. While marveling over her new computer, she asked me ¨marianna, i am afraid that my computer can get viruses, could i get AIDS from my computer¨? I explained that we use the word virus to explain something that can cause damage to your computer but only your computer. they arent human viruses. I didnt go into the AIDS talk, especially with her mom nearbye. AIDS is sensitive topic, but the necessity to teach a health class is greater. Soon, i will.
