We can not stop them from having sex but we can help them from making a big mistake. Condoms would be sold in our schools. Maybe they won’t be sold in public but they will be available in our schools. The selling of condoms in school will provide a way to protect themselves. Another form of protection for our schools is actual police officers and metal detectors in the schools. Kids now a day have so many issues and problems in their lives. Kids are being killed all over America because t ...

... motivated businesswomen and scientific women. Actually, the subtle message that society gave was that the educated woman was actually selfish and evil. I remember in a particular story I once read and the effect it had on me. It was a story in the McCall Magazine dated December 1949, called “A Weekend with Daddy.” A little girl, who lives a lonely life with her mother, who is divorced, and intellectual know-it-all psychologist, goes to the country to spend a weekend with her farther and his new wife, who is wholesome, happy, a good cook and gardener. There is love, laughter, growing flowers, hot clams and a gourmet cheese omelet, and square dancing, and she d ...

Another issue faced is the way a mother may feel about a child going to a child care, in the long run she knows it is the best. Mothers can find guidance if they are not able to find the steps of how to deal with continuing to work.

Communism wouldn't be the right choice because the government would have too much control over everyone's lives and being controlled isn't ideal for many people. A democratic society wouldn't work either because you would always have people like Hitler and Stalin walking around that wouldn't agree with it theref ...

... problems. After my dad re-married, we went through some rough times. However, my father and ‘step’ mom have always been there for me during all of the problems that every teenager must face. For example, I just went through a rough time after my boyfriend broke up with me Saturday night, the day before Valentine’s Day. Not only was my best friend able to comfort me, but also my parents. My best friend told me that I should no longer let guys beguile their way into stressing me out, and that all guys are ‘jerks’. It was touching to have my parents willing to listen to my situation, giving me advice that I could use. It’s hard watching my friends walk down th ...

The more you learn about your own heritage, the more enlightened you are to others. Some families celebrate their heritage by cooking certain types of food, with recipes handed down from generation to generation. Others celebrate holidays differently or not at all.

These differences are not visible, but skin color and ...

... The Houston Historical Society had enforced a multi- million dollar order to refurbish the district. Unfortunately, they were not going to grant the owner’s of the elderly woman’s rental house government money to improve the home. Why? Well, the owner’s of the home were not financially in the poverty zone. They actually were making above $35,000, which did not allow them access to government funding. Even though the $35,000, before taxes, was to feed a husband, wife, two children, pay mortgage, insurance, taxes, utilities, college and buy clothes.

... The instinctive reaction is to scold the older brother and "baby" the younger brother. This helps neither brother. The younger brother feels more dependent, which damages his self-image, while it makes the older brother resent the attention his younger brother receives even more. In this situation my personal belief is that a person should calmly explain to the older brother that what he did was wrong, but forgivable. You should also explain why it was wrong in a way the child can understand. In my opinion the worst thing a person could do in this situation is to force the child to apologize. It will reestablish that what he did was wrong, and, since his baby br ...
