by the homeless man looking for money to feed his family. There is no isolated
problem in society and each problem has a ripple effect that eventually hurts
everyone. Even if only for selfish reasons, every individual should help to

.... may encounter barriers such as cruelty and
insensitivity, with the utterance of statements like, "Think with your head
straight!" or, "You have a brain, use it." Yet these are all true, there are
still many advantages to stupidity. The first advantage is very easy to
understand. Stupid people are never asked to do a lot. Many have noticed that
people tend to steer away from someone they feel may be stupid. This is for a

Two Parents Or One?

(Curtin et al. 371). Yes, single parents can show their love toward their
children, but they have no spouse to express love to. Children from single
parent families are therefore denied that learning experience of how a husband
and a wife should love one another (Curtin et al. 369).
