...These are the kids that need that special treatment. Also she gives an example how tv programs can affects kids life and actions. Affecting them to do bad things without knowing it was bad because they dont know the real consequences. Another author who i agree with is Paul thompson who is foward with abolishing the mandatory life in prison for juveniles who commit murders, he also agrees that young adolecents dont commit murders just because they want to but because they go through changes which makes them act the way they do. Thompson researches on the human brai he says that any young teenager is far from adulthood. Also he gives facts on how theirs a “massive loss brain tissue occurs in teen years” also how the tv programs is a major factor on the brain and how the brain changes its development because of that. On June 25, 2012 the supreme court ruled that the juveniles commiting murder will not be sentenced to life in prison because it violates the eight amendment on no cruel and unsual punishment. The authors from the articles who disagree with me is Gail Garinger “juveniles dont deserve life sentences” aregues that teens should be in prison for the crimes they have committed and in no condition they should be out. A crime is...

At that point which was about two years into her contract* she had been left a several thousand dollars* a BMW* and a the bedroom two bathroom HOUSE on the emerald coast. It was mindblowing.

...Effects of Drug Abuse Drugs can be found everywhere an individual looks and it can seem like just about everyone around you is doing drugs. Learning the different types of drugs and the effects it has can help to say no when someone offers you a “buzz.” Not all drugs are bad, some are prescription drugs offered by doctors others are used for the pleasure people claim they bring. Not only can drug abuse affect the body and loved ones, but also society. Marijuana, cocaine, heroin, and ecstasy are some of the many drugs that are being used today but only three of them are mostly known. Marijuana also known as weed, is the most commonly used illegal drug in the United States. When an individual smokes marijuana its gives off an immediate sensation of a dream-like surrounding, increased appetite, and drowsiness. The effects typically wear off within an hour or two, but that depends on the abundance of the product. Some people dont see how this can be harmless to a person’s body compared to cigarette smoking and/or drinking, and although there are not any major issues, there are complications. A person who smokes marijuana can have changes in the brain, making it harder to remember things and pay attention. smoking it a lot and for a vast amount of time can effect fertility by decreasing a man’s sperm count and delaying a women’s ovulation.

...instance, Love.We have different beliefs or understanding of this four letter word. Here is essential question for it. What is love,exactly? What is hidden beneath love's surface? What does love create? How do you unlock more opportunities for it? For these essantial questions my answer would be different as other people because we are unieqe. This simple word defined at dictionary with different definations such as a profoundly tender,passionate affection for another person or it is a feeling of warm personal attachment , as for a parent,child , or friend or sexual passion and disere but Barbara Fredrickson doesn't think that these definations are different. She says proposing a general theory of love rather than how love might be specifically experienced within a domain. This is a bold and radical approach. Fredrickson believes that love, as defined by these moments of positivity resonance, is the same whether the moments occur between parent and child, friends, lovers, or total strangers. Without a doubt, Fredrickson believes these experiences are, in her words, “virtually identical." In my view firstly people wait to be discovered deeply in their heart and also love is a priceless diamond because a diomand has thousands of reflections and each reflection represents a meaning of love but firstly we have to find true love and this way has various processes.People love many times and they are different than each other.For me I loved first my father and mother because they...

...set on the border between Mexico and the United States. It is the story of Llewelyn Moss, a veteran of the Vietnam War that finds, in the scene of a bloody massacre in the desert, a briefcase with several million dollars and decides to keep them. Soon, a mysterious assassin, Anton Chigurh, and veteran sheriff Tom Bell, along with drug traffickers and other criminals in a violent and savage persecution will be behind him . As in almost all the work of McCarthy, the issue here is the line between good and evil, and the natural tendency of man toward this last. The pure evil is represented by Chigurh, a ruthless murderer who warns Moss that he will kill him sooner or later, although return the money. At the other side is Bell, who can not understand this wave of violence and chooses to retire. Among them, Moss is a normal, hard but right man, whom the interest in money and the struggle to survive are degraded. The most remarkable are the monologues of Bell, who occupy a few pages at the beginning of each of the thirteen chapters. The sheriff, Bell reflects in these characters, the current moral decline in society. The Bell's speech focused on the praise of the law and the past order. The Sheriff Bell in his monologues talks about ''a new kind''( No Country for Old Men, P.3 ), referring to Chigurh and the new kind: of crime, a new scale of violence, new technology and ways to traffic drugs, etc. Also, he narrates that the new generations have lost the old values as honesty, respect...

...and Zur, A. “Psychology of the Web & Internet Addiction”. Online Publication by Zur Institute.(2011). In this article, Dr. Zur, a psychologist, emphasizes the importances of the natives and immigrants distinction as it explains tensions and how it affects relationships between parents and children, educators and student and business managements and young workers. Distinction caused by different styles, values, and habits of the different groups create misunderstandings, misperceptions, conflict, disharmony and communication breakdowns. Digital immigrants are usually the parents, teachers, and managers or anyone from the older generations. Speaking from experience, my parents believe that my generation is being ruined by todays technology due to less use of brainpower and abusing it. They see it as a threat and I dont. As they say, “ back in our day, we didn't have calculators to do our homework , cheat from the computer and watch television until our brains rot”, and not just because they lived in poverty but also didn't have modern technology like us. Just like the rest of the world at the time. Technology defines our...

...the individual later in life. According to Bowlby "The operation of this system is affected by an individual’s social experiences, especially with early caregivers, resulting in measurable individual differences in attachment security". Attachment is a special emotional relationship that involves an exchange of comfort, care, and pleasure. Not only does attachment security aid in survival but it also has a huge influence on development, our behaviors and relationships later in life. In the article Attachment Security, Compassion and Altruism a series of studies were done by which it is claimed that compassionate feelings and values, and altruistic behaviors are also affected by the "attachment behavioral system." What I understand from this is if you are neglected of care as an infant it will affect how compassionate or altruistic you are later in life. Theoretically wanting to enhance compassion and altruism in the real world....

...good values and virtues, which is commonly taught by the family. A home is where a family lives. It may be alternated to the word ‘house’ but a house is more appropriately referring to the material structure, whereas ‘home’ refers to the intangible things that bind together the family members. It is the immeasurable love and care that keeps together the mother, father and their children. However, no matter how ideal a family in the terms of their relationship, there are still hardships and misunderstandings that will come along the way. It is just part of any relationship anyway. But, the sad part is when one of the family members gave up and the others have no choice but to accept and let go. Thus, the family starts to be broken. I. FACTOR THAT BREAK UP A FAMILY A.

...hollywood movies. That you would find it funny but don’t realize that they have some sexual jokes, or harassments that are made usually towards a teenage girl more than a women. The authors shows examples of some TV shows that show sexual violence. The author tries to use rhetoric to persuade you and make you realize what you haven’t noticed. The author also tries to show you connotation and bias in this article also. According to the article, the girls were most likely to be the target of sexual jokes more than women (The Washington TImes). This is rhetorical because the author is trying to use pathos, so we can understand where he/she is coming from. Girls shouldn't be the target for this because they are only teenagers they are not even women, and women get sexual jokes but that’s because they are older and they know what they are doing unlike teenage girls who are just being targeted without them even noticing it sometimes. Another example, of rhetoric is ethos because the author claims that the kids show called, “Family Guy” has sexual jokes, harassment, prostitution, pornography, and stripers in the show. This is credible because...
