The storyline of many different television shows normally have exactly the same sequence of events. First, the scene is set in a hospital.

All the employees hate the boss, the chief of medicine; Dr. Bob Kelso because he is some hypocritical, crazed maniac that cannot even once admit that he really needs friends or loves his wife. As for the maintenance staff is concerned, the only person who actually is involved inside the lives of all four friends, the crazed Janitor, known as Janitor, takes all matters into his own hands when he begins his need for chaos with J.D. As for everyone else, they sort of just go along with absolutely everything that happens between the four friends and their crazed adventures. ...

Now I would be responsible for another human being. There are many types of psychological perspectives but the two that applies to me becoming pregnant was cognitive and developmental perspectives.

I had to finish school, get a job, and give up my social life to focus on my child. Through observational learning I discovered so much helping things.

Exposure to environmental toxins can also cause slow brain development and mental retardation. Prenatal care is one of the best ways to protect babies from brain damage. Developmental delays can have future negative effects on your child, which may lead to speech and language difficulties, behavioral problems, and learning problems.

This is an action that is happening and no one can find a way to slow it down. It seems that everywhere you look; another teenager is pregnant or knows a friend or pier that is pregnant. In the article “Aggression is a predictor of rapid repeat teen pregnancy” the author talks about how teenagers are not only getting pregnant, they are getting pregnant again.

There is Pro-Choice and Pro-Life, how it affects everyone on religious beliefs and cultural values. No one can talk about this topic without it turning into an argument. Either people think it’s right or it’s wrong, everyone has a very different opinion on it. Communication on abortion does not occur very often.

...Rajneesh Having a baby does change everything. I’ve only been a mother for two and a half months so I thought I would start by telling you about my pregnancy. On April 13, I took a home pregnancy test and it showed up positive. On April 15, I went to the Texas County Health Department to get it confirmed. They estimated my due date to be December 11, 2010. My husband and I were very excited to find out that we were expecting. This is the first grandbaby for everyone in the family, on both sides. I had already began taking my prenatal vitamins long before I became pregnant and as a result, I only through up four times during my whole pregnancy. I was constantly tired though throughout the whole pregnancy. I found the second trimester of pregnancy to be the easiest and most comfortable time of my pregnancy. During the third trimester I had some heartburn and towards the end of my pregnancy it was hard for me to sleep comfortable. My son Benton, was born on December 3rd, 2010. He weighed seven pounds six ounces and was twenty one and a fourth inches long. It was a new experience for me, as I have never held a baby before, much less a newborn baby. The first day in the hospital went well. He slept alot but woke up every two to three hours to be fed. That was a big change for me to have to wake up so often. I liked to sleep in. My son is being breastfed. We stayed another day in the hospital because I was have a little problem nursing him correctly. Staying the extra day was...

...Community Health Issues: Teenage Pregnancy The local Community health issues that will be discussed is teen pregnancy, even though it stems further than just the community. Teen pregnancy has been going on for decades, just in the past few decades we have seen the problem increase, up until around the 1960’s it was appropriate for a 14 year old girl to marry and have kids. Since the decline of unwed teenagers was when everyone decided it was a problem and it has to be fixed. Even though it has been a problem in Florida and in my community there has been a decrease, but even though there is a decrease we as a community will still have to battle to keep the numbers down. According to Paula Stuart” In the past decade, according to the alliance, Polk has ranked among the leading counties in the state for the number of live births to minor girls, those younger than 18 years old (Paula Stuart, 2001).” Teen pregnancy in Florida and in my community began to rise in the 1990’s but stayed at a steady pace, but in 2005 there was a three percent increase. “The pregnancy rate among 15-to-19-year-olds increased 3 percent between 2005 and 2006 -- the first jump since 1990, according to an analysis of the most recent data collected by the federal government and the nation's leading reproductive-health think tank (Washington Post, 2010).” Many people wonder how teen pregnancy has affected the community and how it has affected the community and how have they responded.

...INTRODUCTION: What is pregnancy? And what are the different symptoms did pregnant experience? Pregnancy is a happy moment for every woman as it shows that you are expecting a child to bear. One of the toughest parts of trying to get pregnant has to be playing the waiting game each month to see whether or not you get your period and, of course, whether or not you wind up with a positive home pregnancy test. But even though you can't confirm things until you get two pink lines or a plus sign on a test stick, there are some really early pregnancy symptoms that might be an indication that you have a baby on board even if it's way too early to officially detect things yet. Some people have basic questions about how pregnancy happens. Some may have questions about avoiding a pregnancy. Others are considering pregnancy and have questions about pre-pregnancy health, or infertility. And some may wonder about options for an unintended pregnancy. Many women need information about pregnancy tests. Pregnant women may also have questions about prenatal care and the stages of pregnancy. And women who are concerned about pregnancy loss may have lots of questions about miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy. Only you can decide what is best for you when it comes to pregnancy. But we are here to help. A staff member at your local Planned Parenthood health center can talk with you about all of your pregnancy-related concerns. And we can help you get care that you need.

...Adrian Llañez Dr. Susan Cardenas HL S 301V 4 May 2014 Preventing Teen Pregnancy Sexuality is a huge, broad topic. When breaking it all down, one thing stands out to me: teen pregnancy. This topic is one of major debate and draws the attention of several governments worldwide to help prevent a problematic trend. While there are several agencies in the United States designed to educate and attempt to lower the teen pregnancy rate, the United States still maintains one of the highest rates in the world. I believe that while we in the United States try to lower this rate, we are not doing enough to educate and better inform the youth. We need to invest in comprehensive sex education and change the messages were sending teens through the media. I’m from an area where teen pregnancy is a norm. It frightens me knowing that my two younger sisters may become part of a tragic statistic. People blow off teen pregnancy like it is not a big deal, but we need to fix the “solutions” that our government has set out. We have several programs currently available to youth in the United States one of which is sex education. However the media play the most negative role in offsetting the work we as a society perform to help our teens be healthy and not fall into a trap. While sexuality is completely natural and healthy, teens are still not fully aware of some of the consequences that come with teen sex. The first thing I see that needs to be changed is our sex education system. The United...

...There have been many occasions where women in my family have had life threatening risks while pregnant but luckily they had good doctors to keep things under control and they were able to give birth to their little miracles. When falling pregnant, although short, there is always a list of health risks that can affect not only the mother but the baby as well. For example, when my sister, Ina fell pregnant with her daughter, she went in to have a sonogram and the doctors told her that her daughter’s heart was too large and her daughter would die immediately after giving birth. Multiple doctors informed my sister not to buy anything for her daughter or have a baby shower because she would most likely be planning a funeral instead. Instead of taking the doctor’s advice, Ina went on with her pregnancy as though everything was normal; she kept a positive attitude and refused to believe that was the end of it. On February, 24, 2007 I was there to witness her give birth to a beautiful healthy baby girl weighing 6lbs, 2oz. Today my niece she is 6 years old and healthy and happy as can be. Usually when doctors make a suggestion on what to do while pregnant, people will do as they suggest. Although it isn’t very likely, there are times doctors can be wrong in what advice they decide to give and it is up to the patient to decide if they will take the risk of not following the doctor’s advice. Another example from my family is again with my sister Ina. She found out she was pregnant again...

...Should Abortion be legal? Nearly half of pregnancies among American women are unintended, and about four in ten of these are terminated by abortion. In 1973 Roe V. Wade decision, the supreme Court ruled that women, in consultation with their physician, have a constitutionally protected right to have an abortion in the early stages of pregnancy. Abortion is a very serious and dangerous thing to decide 50% of women who have had abortions report experiencing emotion and psychological problems lasting for months or years. Only 12% women reported having a physical problem with their health among having an abortion like an infection called hemorrhage and uterine perforation. My personal experience having an abortion is when my mom had one in 2000. She said that she was not ready to raise other child at this moment in her life, because she just moved to North Carolina and was looking for a job. She felt no guilt about what she has done she thought it was the right thing to do at this point in her life. Most people would argue that abortion is not only wrong, but it is murder to an innocent child with no fault of its own. The first reason that abortion should be illegal because it is murder! For example, the fetus is a distinct individual therefore its DNA is completely its own while the baby is in the womb the baby will show definite signs of emotion. I think that when a human egg and a human sperm meet, the resulting individual is simply human. The number of American babies killed...

...Abortion 1. Who is your audience? What is the name of the person or group for whom you are writing this argument? Why have you chosen this person or group as your target audience? Why will your argument have exigence for your audience? My audience would be to pregnant women. I have chosen my audience to be pregnant women because women who get pregnant are often asked if they know all their options. 2. How open is your audience to your argument? Is it undecided or hostile? Keep in mind that the more hostile your audience is, the more time you will need to spend establishing common ground between you and your audience. My audience would have to be more towards hostile because abortion is a sensitive subject to some people. 3. How will you organize your argument to accommodate your audience’s level of openness to your position? Will your argument have a classical structure? Will it have a Rogerian structure? Will you be presenting your reasons and evidence before directly stating your thesis? Why, based on your knowledge of your audience, will your argument have the organization you will be using? I will give both of the sides of the argument and keep an open mind when presenting both sides. My argument will have a Rogerian structure and my thesis will come after all the evidence is presented. 4. What are your audience's priorities and goals? What are your audience's concerns and fears?
