Retrieved from http://search.ebscohost.com.proxy.devry.edu/login.aspx?direct=true&db=a9h&AN=70369738&site=ehost-live This article is about how the school board of the L.A. Unified School District made drastic changes the school lunch menu without consulting the kids first, and how the students did not like the changes at all. The new menu had fruits and vegetables making up at least half of the servings on every students plate. This new menu was widely rejected by students and a black market of junk food was even created by certain students. This article supports the idea that by including children in implementing changes in diet and menu, those changes may be more successful. It also points out that by slowly introducing kids to healthy alternatives and informing them about why a change to a healthier diet of fruits an vegetables is important to having a higher quality of life as they get older. This idea supports the second part of my research paper where I discuss the importance of children becoming interested in growing vegetables is an important part of changing the eating habits of American families. Thus, reducing the levels of obesity and type II diabetes in America. Bittman, M. (2011, September 24). Is junk food really cheaper?. Retrieved from http://www...

And most of the time they are aware of their problems. Not every family looks at themselves as a system; a system is not a direct determination that a typical family would consider themselves because they just live life one day at a time. To be able to understand the system within ones family the family must first understand themselves and once that has been established them the family will then start to understand their individual system.

...happen, but they should not feel that way. It is not “cool” to tell on anyone. You would just be known as a “snitch.” Some bullying happens outside of schools, but most bullying happens in schools. Bullying happens in more than just the United States. An article that came out of the United Kingdom states that “While more than 16,000 children are absent from school at anyone time because of bullying, more than half of sixteen to fifteen-year-olds do not know how to get help if they are being bullied” (Daily Post 2). Sixteen thousand kids miss school in the United Kingdom is an absurd amount. Bullying is not only impacting them on an emotional level, but now on a mental level. Daily post also explained that “Bullying is strongly linked to eating disorders, self-harm and suicide, and being a bullying victim increases the risk of being depressed later in life by more than half” (Daily Post 2). All of these outcomes from bullying, and it still happens everyday and everywhere. Bullies are everywhere, and many people know who is a bully and who is not. What people do not like to do is help the victim of the bully. Many students will stand around and watch their peers getting picked on. Some teachers and students do not even see it happening. Joan B. Lampert accurately states in the manuscript she wrote that “Teachers could reduce the amount of bullying by being visible, but most of the girls stated that teachers and parents either did not care or were unaware that bullying was taking...

...Have you ever seen a commercial with an attractive person in it and thought to yourself, “I wish I could look like that?” Well, so have other Americans and that is what are wrong with today’s society. People feel that they need to look like a superstar to be happy. One thing that influence this thought process are popular magazines showing how people can lose weight and saying that if you’re not in perfect shape then you’re not attractive. “One body-image study found that 45 percent of men were dissatisfied with their physiques; women were only slightly less satisfied at 55 percent.”(Potter). Most people think that this only happens to females but it affects males greatly also. In today’s society women feel that they need to be 5’5” and 110 pounds to be attractive. It is reasons like this that females suffer from diseases such as anorexia and bulimia all because advertisements imply that they are not attractive. Women look at magazines like Victoria’s Secret, Playboy, and Maxim and see how guys react to those pictures and think that they need to look like this to get the same attention. So, it is pretty obvious that the majority of males are not helping this cause out at all, because they participate in the purchase of these items and act negatively towards women who do not fit this image. Although men may cause women to feel like this, women do the same exact thing to men. Every time a girl see’s a 6’0” muscular man with a six pack they get all googly over him. That...

...Annotated Bibliography for Hamlet Thesis: In Hamlet, Ophelia faces the constant struggle to find her identity, due to male superiority and lack of mother. If Ophelia were to live in today’s world, she would most likely suffer from depression, abuse, and eating disorders due to her lack of personal identity. Shakespeare, William. Hamlet. New York: Dover Publications, 1992. Print. Hamlet, by William Shakespeare is the main text used for relations to Ophelia and her lack of personal identity. This play provides us with first-hand information on Ophelia’s downward spiral into insanity, which results in her own personal demise. This source is very appropriate, due to the fact that it is the first-hand insight into what Shakespeare portrayed Ophelia as, in her role in Hamlet. Therefore, it is believed that all information found in it, can be trusted and used accordingly, to relate Ophelia and her insanity due to contributing factors in her social environment. I found this source, in class, as it was our primary learning source in the discussions we had about Hamlet. This source is unlike my other sources, due to the fact that it is the base text for my work. From this source, I can learn how Ophelia slowly fell into madness, and what events helped lead up to her peak of insanity in the play. This helps develop my essay, because it is the main source that I will be using in relation to my other research sources. Considering that this is my base text, it is relatable to both my...
