Direct representation

Direct representation means that you have someone who speaks on your behalf and represents you directly. It's just like when you have a really good friend who knows you well and can speak up for you when you're not around. In some cases, people get to choose who they want to represent them, like when you vote for your favorite candidate in an election. That person will then go and represent your voice in the government or other organizations. Direct representation can ensure that your needs and concerns are heard and addressed by someone who knows what you want, just like your friend who knows your preferences and can speak on your behalf.
